Empty stadiums are SO MUCH FUN! Another chill day at Guaranteed Rate Field

[@SrullyEpstein]

That's my son, "Five times the Ball Hawk" Joe, at 9:12. Thanks for including him, Zack. You made his day!

[@mauricemoton1069]

It was a pleasure to meet you Zack at this game. I actually got to meet you right before the gate opened up. I got a picture of you and myself as well. I was the guy who drove from Northern Indiana to this very game and was fortunate to meet you. Take care and hopefully to one day run into you again. BTW-I did see you going for Seager’s HR ball in right field and saw your reaction when you didn’t get it.

[@zackhample]

Nice meeting you too. I remember you from outside the stadium. And as for Seager . . . UGGGHHHHHH

[@mauricemoton1069]

@@zackhample Yeah I feel you on that one.

[@jonjt7411]

​@@zackhample This is the wrost staudim in history you have a world class skyline in Chicago and they build it to face ... the Dan Ryan Expressway???!! !!!!!!!!!!!

[@doubleueyett]

So close! Well at least you were there to see it. IMO, a day at the ballpark being close to catching milestone homeruns beats a day not being in the ball park at all! Fun video :)

[@zackhample]

Thanks! Glad you liked it.

[@thetopfan5031]

Zack, man i can feel the pain in your voice after the Seager homer. You put a lot of thought into that trip to Chicago, and did in fact get close. I know that stung.

[@aidanfinkofficial]

I’ve been there. It’s really painful and heartbreaking.

[@zackhample]

Bigtime. I've had ZERO luck with ANY important home run for sis years, and it's really weighing on me. SIX. YEARS.

[@austin5019]

It was a pleasure to see you again last night at Fenway, Zack!!! Thank you very much!!!

[@zackhample]

Heyyyy, same here "double-A" haha. :p

[@Ayden_Tempesta]

Hey, if going to Chicago only a few times a year means it’s near to COMPLETELY empty, I’ll take that deal any day! And still a valiant effort on the Seager home run!

[@zackhample]

Thanks. I'm still bummed about missing that one, tho.

[@LPT12.]

We need more Midwest team vids like this!!! always a great day when Zack uploads :)

[@LPT12.]

I’d also be thrilled to see a target field vid Ik u don’t rlly go there but it would be nice to see my fav KZbinr in my hometown either on sep 28 or the 25th I’ll be there and maybe even get to meet you!

Thank you for visiting Chicago & getting a 🍕 Sad to see you leave. The White Sox videos are my favorites... You are the man Zack. Hope you can maybe do some Q & As during the winter while you get a break from traveling all over the country like a mad man lol.

It must real exiting with those 2,000 people in the stands.

I ran into Zach seconds after the Corey Seagar homerun and despite being really upset he was still nice enough to pose for a selfie! Thanks Zach!

[@aidanfinkofficial]

Zack “hoodie/ “I don’t want to see a no-hitter” Hample is back at it complaining!!! I love it. It’s the secret to success. May luck be on your side in September. Stay negative!

[@zackhample]

Haha, I'll do my best. Also, my luck last night on Santander's 40th was TERRIBLE. I just know I won't catch another homer this season. Or ever.

[@aidanfinkofficial]

@@zackhample BWAHAHAHAHA!!! Perfect!

[@Nik-cg6qr]

Guaranteed Rate field looks super chill and calm

[@jorvan6910]

Good afternoon from Chicago Zack, sad(didnt got that 200th HR, it's really close to reach your target and didn't meet you there) and happy to watch it. Wish that any player from CWS or A's players will have 100 or 200 HR or whatever special record coming on this weekend haha. Thanks for the video will share to kids later. They are happy to see you in WS game.

[@mlballhawks]

Hey man, you put yourself in the mix! That's all we can do! Keep grinding, Z! Great job!

[@zackhample]

Thank you, sir!

[@marblox9300]

I would actually like this park if it was in the same footprint and field orientation as Old Comiskey. Facing SE just doesn't seem correct for me.

[@jakekirk5872]

Nathan Gallagher is a big reason why I love the Sox and cubs stadium, hope you’ve got to experience him!

[@Techguyericd]

I've been a Cubs fan born and raised in California, i can't wait to go to Chicago to see a game at Wrigley, but i'll definitely have to go see a game at 2nd Rate Field

[@peytonclark1353]

Empty stadiums are truly awesome but glad we don't see them more often feel like its always good to have fans in the stands

[@billmetzler8890]

Bummer! That’s it. That’s all I have to say. Great video Zack! Thank you.

[@zackhample]

Well said and thanks.

[@TedsBaseballVlogs]

I liked GRF when I attended there last year. Seems like an easier place to get balls than Angel Stadium especially since you can use the cup trick in the LF gap, which I got a ball with. I think the real reason why it is ranked low is because of the location. Too bad you did not get Seager's home run which you came very close to.

[@Bonsai-Boy]

Lost it in Miller Lite landing - many can relate.

[@McSus2]

I expect Coors Field to have a lot of empty seats because the Rockies are bad but surprisingly I seen a decent crowd and I seen Colorado play against San Francisco and my favorite team Boston

[@JDu2an]

Another chill day 😎

[@BasedFalcon]

Wow the second game I went to that Zack was there (last year when Shohei visited on the Angels)! The tickets were super cheap. $25 to be right behind the WS dugout and next to the at batsman.

[@andrewwilson1811]

@zackhample Zack hample you know the Gates open 2 hours early in Philly till end of season. Just a heads up.

[@JADZEL4080]

Yea I heard that as well

[@zackhample]

Thanks! Good to know. Still not worth going, haha. Way too crowded.

[@tjwashow7793]

I’m glad you have fun watching the Sox they stink but I’m glad you had fun!

Would love to see the Phillies play there. Great chance of finding a ticket and I have never been to Chicago before. Will be next season though.

[@iggyzorro2406]

Re: Corey's home run - woulda, coulda, shoulda, Zack. I'm afraid we may have to send you down to some minor league parks to work on your ballhawk strategy. We may bring that kid up to the show for the rest of the season who got the 5 baseballs.

[@zackhample]

[@StephenSalcido]

6:54 is precisely why a lot of people don’t like Zack Hample. Please don’t come at me in the comments!! I am a big fan of Zack and have been a loyal subscriber for over 5 years. I’m pretty sure that surface that Zack climbed up on was a barrier between sections (correct me if I’m wrong please.)I think if you ask most baseball fans, most will say that they would NEVER do something like that for a ball for fear of being reprimanded by stadium security. Zack also did something similar earlier this year to obtain his 100th home run ball at dodger stadium by jumping in between a space where fans weren’t allowed. The difference here is that Zack has demonstrated that he would basically do ANYTHING for a baseball, even if it means bending the rules. Most people may see that and feel that it’s unfair because they themselves are abiding by those said rules. This is not meant to be a hateful in anyway; I’m just stating what I’ve observed after watching Zack for so long. Maybe some rules are made to be broken and I think we can all learn a little from Zack in this sense when it comes to pushing the norm. Anyways, thanks for reading. Go Zack!

[@zackhample]

Oh well. It was a valuable and historic ball, and I went for it, harming absolutely no one in the process. I get why it might piss some people off, but those people also need to get a life. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

[@ROCKSTAR-sd8vv]

Record crowd for a Sox game 😂

[@Grandizer8989]
