- Want to see the bats that Alex Rodriguez signed for me in exchange for his 3,000th hit baseball? In addition to those, I've gotten lots of other bats from MLB players, some of which are signed, game-used, rubbed with pine tar, and cracked.
Here are the blog entries and videos that show how I got them . . .
Cliff Floyd at Shea Stadium in 2006:

And while you're at it, show some UA-cam love to Todd Cook (the guy who made the bat that I showed at the end) and his sons, Tim and Kellan. Here's their channel: / @todd_on_bikes
Thanks for watching! Leave a comment. Let me know what other videos you want to see and it just might happen . . .
Little did he know that he would get a mike trout bat soon
Ikr
and a alex blandino bat
Yup
Yea
I was wondering why he isn sho that
My most prized bat (and ball and t-shirt) is signed by Willie Mays, Bobby Thompson and Leo Durocher along with other Giants. This was a result of attending the 1987 SF Giant fantasy camp. Greatest baseball experience of my life! Have you ever attended a fantasy camp?
I have a CJ Cron broken bat from his junior or senior year at highschool. I got it while watching the highschool homerun derby and he gave it to me after he broke it.
At 9:35 this guy doesn’t even care that he can use the force 🤣🤣
Please do a video of the most important balls in your collection and tell what's so special about them please
Great idea!
Zach Hample I was thirteen when I got my first bat from a team for free. As a matter of fact I still have it from the Coastal Plain League for the Wilson Tobs, which as of 2009 most wins they set the most records and firsts beaten the next year when I batboyed. I went to the Wilson Tobs baseball camp which may have members of the 2015 LLWS 2015 North CarolinaState Championship that lost twice in Warner Robins, Georgia. They're were fans in attendance from 2015 LLWS North Carolina at that and the year after that I harbours the whole season + 1 Road Game, also attending a All Star Game. In 2009 Russell Wilson was a member of the CPL.
What did you get for mike trouts first HR?
Legend77777 his bat
I was at a game in 99 at Fenway during BP when Mike Stanley cracked his bat (small one) and walked over and handed it to me. What made this cool was Stanley was one of my fav players after coming over from NY as a FA. It has the 20 on the knob with the Big Stick printed on the barrel along with his name as well as NY YANKEES. The thing that makes that unique is he had been with the Redsox for a few years at that point so for him to still have one of his Yankees bats i found odd...but ball players are weird maybe he just liked that bat...after he was done with his BP he signed the barrel for me...Super nice guy
Huge brewer fan, I would love that Villar bat lol
I would love it too.
This man needs to buy a lottery ticket
Where does he even get all the all this money to go to all these baseball games
@@linorodriguez861 UA-cam channel?
That's a big-ass rubber band ball
Idk if Zach knows this but, all the 12 years olds now that play baseball that will one day be in the MLB probably watch his videos and eventually he will be getting so much stuff
Hugh Mungus
It's zack you dolt.
Hugh Mungus actually odds are you won’t make it to the majors but ok.
DucksMC he means the ones who will make it
Alexander Shaer ok
As a kid growing up I only practiced using wooden bats because it was heavier than the metal bats I used growing up I stopped playing baseball in highschool because I was being moved around in fostercare and just felt awkward trying to be on a new team with new kids and I grew depressed I wish I didn't stop but practicing with n authentic mlb bat definitely helped me be a better hitter especially since I was switch hitting as well I loved switch hitting
Awesome Vid Zack! The only bat I have gotten was from Sean Casey. I painted a starting lineup figure in his likeness. It was a triple threat I think they called it. His batting stance, him swinging and the follow through. So it was 3 figures in one box. I painted the first in his Akron Aeros minor league uniform that I saw him play in, then the Cleveland Indians and then the Cincinnati Reds and I mailed it off to him in spring training. A couple weeks later I got a cracked bat from him in the mail back. That was a very cool moment for me and vey cool of him to do that.
VERY cool. And thanks for watching.
Those bats are pretty cool. I started watching this at about 3 hours ago and then just finished watching it bc I got sidetracked with your blog entries of the A-Rod 3k hit and Mike Trout 1st HR
Another great video. Love the stories and history behind the bats. Keep up the great work....
Both a rod bats are p72 models which was also the only model bat the Derek Jeter used for his entire career. After Jeter retired, louisville slugger also retired the p72 model in honor of Jeter using it his whole career. I wouldn't doubt if a rod had borrowed or used one of Jeters bats and then adopted the model himself.. the last bit is just my theory and opinion, but hang on to the a rod bats. Best wishes zack.
MattFromWork they renamed it the DJ2
As a native from Montreal I have to say I am most jealous of your Expos bat, even over that from Arod and trout.
What’s up with all those pictures on your wall
I got a Kennys Vargas game used cracked bat at a Syracuse Chiefs (now mets) game once. I was sitting on the road side one time o change it up and I was holding my little baby cousin on my lap and Vargas yelled to me and pointed to me with the bat and gave it to me. He’s in Japan now but he’s still one of my favorites.
Oh I remembe watching the Andres Blanca broken bat
I don't think is the amount of pinetar on the bat..but it's the length can't have it to far up or down on the barrel...I think u can have as much as u want in-between there...again..I think
Q and a question who do you think will win it all this year
Good stuff, Zack!
Coming from YOU of all people, that means a lot.
8:33... YT profile pic. Always wondered what that picture was from.
:)
I have a Orlando Cabrera bat when he played with the angels , I remember him handing it out after a game and he handed it to me , means the world to me something I will never let go of
That's is profile picture. 8:35
YUP!
very epic bat collection
Thanks.
Did Trout ever send you a bat?
Nice collection! I have a Tommy Greene autographed bat that I won last year. It wasn’t game used but is still awesome
can you even get a game used bat from the dugout with the new netting anymore?
Hamza Aziz maybe but it’s much more difficult
Probably not in most places.
Nice! The only game used bat I own is a Doug Mientkiewicz broken bat from when he played in Double-A with the New Britain Rock Cats.
Scott Markiewicz that’s pretty cool. He was a favorite here in MN. Slick player.
Coolness.
Have you done a Jersey collection
Jessica Plemons that would be cool to see
Can we see your game used/player’s gloves/armbands collection?
Zack, you should show the rest of your game used items! Im gonna do one sometime soon too!
Zack do you collect baseball team yearbooks?
No.
Hey Zack! Are you going to be at the A’s 50th Anniversary game on 4/17??
Camden yards attendance is below 9000 fans past two nights it would be good for ballhawking no joke
Hey zack, I would love it if you go to cooperstown. You could g see the Hall of Fame and go to all the baseball stores and a resturante maybe. ive been at main street in cooperstown and its amazing to go see all the baseball things. Please hmu with a response. Thank you! -cade
I definitely want to do a video there.
Dude this is sick! Cool collection! And any tips/tricks to get a bat or game ball? I'm going to a game soon hopefully and I wanna try and get a ball so Please any advice is helpful 😅😂
Thanks! Lots of advice in the video and in the links in the description.
Zack Hample Thank you so much Zack! Who knows maybe I'll see ya at the game that'd be cool! Good luck to you this year my friend!
Anybody watching after he got a mike trout bat
savage gamer 777 me

Love your rated rookies shirt
Zack is like a four year old kid showing his LEGO collection
What is your goal of bat collecting what is the most you want to get
What did you get for Trouts first HR?
I got to meet him and hand him the ball. Didn't ask for anything else. I wish I had.
Zack Hample
At least he talks to you every time you see him
ARod signed those bats beautifully
Zack, do you own any game worn jerseys from any player's?
Awesome collection Zack my only bat is a Lewis brinson cracked bat from spring training hopefully he pans out
jdcardsngraphs Go Marlins!

Wow I went to a game in Boston last year got three balls , I got a Carlos Martinez and Michael wacha but came no where near a bat that just proves how good you are, good luck I love ur videos I've been a subscriber spence early 2017 , GOAT🐐
I got an autograph
Thanks so much!
what do you do with all of your baseballs and bats
Zack, it's always an enjoyment to watch your videos. I'm a big baseball fan (thanks to my adds), so I appreciate you doing these videos.
-Peace,
Jerry ✌️❤️
Little did he know he
Would get one from
Mike Trout days later
Is that A Rod bat from when you have back his 3000th hit ball?
Yes.
Will you make a mlb 18 game play
Those A Rod bats are beautiful
hay about mike trout?
Any advice for getting bats at games, getting lineup cards, players' hats, or anything else like that?
5:55 the security guards face
He wanted that bat😏
Spring training games are best way for autographs
You should try to snag a glove at a ball game.
10:48 picture on the wall two above the knob of the bat. Zack got some freaky stuff lmao.
Do you collect baseball cards too
Hi Zack, stupid question, why is the end of the bat dished out? Great video!
To just decrease the bats weight for a little quicker swing
Thank you!
Zack u should go work for barstool sports
U should go to a cavs playoff game! that would be fun to watch
TeenHarris11 he doesn’t do basketball!
That is a cool room
Awesome collection of baseball bats especially the broken bat
Thanks!
Now you have a trout bat
What’s the best best way to get a bat in the stadium ?
in a year your going to get a mike trout bat
He did
Hey Zack you should do a video on the baseball cards you have
Oish . . . too many. Maybe the valuable ones.
Who is your favorite baseball player of all times
Melissa Long great question wondering the same thing
You should also make a video of you playing baseball with one of those nine broken bats! It would be really cool.
Where is your Mike trout bat?
He didn’t have the bat when he made this vid
Do you keep the bats with autographs in bat tubes? How do you organize them at home? Excellent video...because something different than the usual (like Cuba vacation video). Looking forward to visiting Argosy.
Thanks so much, but no, they're just leaning up against the ball in a corner of my bedroom.
Can you do a part two of your bats
That’s all of the bats he had back then he has way more now tho
@@chacehenderson8862 I know at the time he had that many bats so I was asking him to do a part two
Cool collection. Especially the Expos one.
Thanks.
Chase Utley gave me a bat after I gave him my signed baseball card when i was 9
Angel stadium are selling $60 broken bats, do you think it’s worth it?
At 1:15 you got the bat in 1999 and your shirt says 2000
Hi Zack, did you try out any of them yourself?
Try out . . . what?
Zack Hample One of those bats?
I have a old hickory bat from a college player
I have a question. Can we see all your jersys at once??
zack when are you going to get a bat from mike trout
I have a Ted Williams bat, a Stan Musial , a Johnny bench, and a Juan marichal.
Can We See Your Baseball Card Collection?
Yes! Someday . . .
Can we see all your game used stuff
I'll try to do more videos about all that stuff.
How much baseballs have you caught
Julie Bustos over 10,000
Ya over 10000
Man, I wish I had a collection like you...
I have the card of Alex’s 3000 hit
That’s so cool that you have an Austin Jackson bat from when he was a Tiger. I’m a Tigers fan
Thanks! I loved him when he first came up.
Can we see your baseball jersey
Where did you get that awesome shirt? I need one! 👍
Got it at Panini as a gift in 2013.
I got a spring training mike trout bat
A long time ago dude
Want me to be exact
Andres Blanco is my baseball coach on Diamond Elite.great man
it sucks that A-Rod did steroids. if he was clean those bats would probably be worth like 10k-30k
Can you make a video about all the stuff you got from a rod
Someday I will try to do that.
Just don’t do anymore ASMR videos...I speak for everyone that it was creepy & weird!!!!
PatsCelticsFan it was April fools lol
Okay.
Austin Jackson is my favorite player
