Whistle Sports!! I love you guys! Thanks for putting together this segment about me. 👊

[@FireDude-py6qn]

Hi Zack

[@thesnazzylemon4085]

Hey zack I love your vid btw, Do you know what stadium you're gonna be at next??

[@PickSixCentral]

Hello there

[@ethanstem1079]

My favorite KZbinr

[@whistlesports]

So fun shooting with you Zack, thanks for letting us see your collection! The Baseball KZbin 🐐!

[@dannyzep92]

Man imagine catching Mike Trouts 1st home run. That's legendary

[@meech37]

AND a-rods 3000th hit. The odds of that are unreal.

[@Gumbocinno]

When he hit his first home run, he was just some guy. Probably had a meet n greet and gave the ball back.

[@jessesalazar7988]

Love watching his videos and respect how he carved out this niche career for himself. Keep it up Zack!

[@zackhample]

Thanks!

[@whistlesports]

Well said!

[@GrandpaStories826]

Whistle always finds a way to make everyone’s day happier, he has inspired me to start my own KZbin Channel 💓 :D

[@x9x9x9x9x9]

From what I have seen from watching Zack over the past 3 or 4 years is that he is a good guy. When I first started watching his content I remember coming across a post saying he would push people to get balls and basically just be a douche. It made sense. I mean how else can you get so many. But after a few more weeks I realized that was all BS sure he might be a little more aggressive than your average fan at the stadium but compared to other "ball hawks" he is one of the more tame. Also he is incredibly generous and a pretty good youtuber. He still replies to comments and emails from fans and seems to be all around a good guy. Also hhe has some good genetics for being as old as he is and looking so young.

[@zackhample]

They, thanks! (Except for calling me old, haha.)

[@ciaran0877]

thats what happens when you dont do drugs,alcholol and drink water and live a healthy lifestyle i know some people in their mid 20s that look 50 your body will treat you well if you treat it well and i agree i like zack hes a good dude and passionate about what he loves of course they'll always be people who hate on him but their just miserable and love to knock people down.

[@hectoralonzo7909]

His collection makes jabs family's collection look like a wet spot on a darkened dirty driveway. Go Zack Go!

[@jackphillips7200]

Zack's dedication to this is truly remarkable, he is legendary 🙌

[@zackhample]

Thanks, Jack, that's nice of you to say.

[@scottrogers2971]

That's good satire

[@Jeff98177]

I have about 30 HR balls, including the last one that Julio Rodriguez hit for the Everett Aquasox before he was promoted to Arkansas. I don't care if you have one game ball or hundreds - the thrill of seeing a ball coming at you, knowing it's yours, NEVER goes away.

WHAT?! Zack, you're a maniac!

[@MrAnderson84]

[@fortify4301]

This guy is pretty good at catching baseball. Someone needs to sign him in the outfield!

[@gameify9193]

But throwing and hitting

[@XxTR1D]

Zack can throw. Idk about hitting though... hitting pitches that look alike and you need to read+ going super fast ain’t the easiest

[@SlippyFlicks]

Amazing video Zach. You got me running around catching baseballs

[@Amada-m3f]

He is the person that made me start playing baseball

[@thriveonvibes]

Find a niche and become the best at it. Love that advice! Hoping to grow a KZbin presence like Zack someday-here’s to having fun with the process! 👏🏻

[@zackhample]

Glad that resonated for you!

[@thriveonvibes]

[@gettinggains1364]

Why is he not in the baseball hall of fame like catching 11,000 is sick

[@grumpygnome9316]

I know this is a true story but it just seems totally unbelievable that someone could go around and catch that many balls and have the time and money to do it

[@xfhnhhgjbvcfg]

It's impossible unless I'm missing something He would have to catch one ball a day for 30 years to this.

[@beavercleaver7848]

@@xfhnhhgjbvcfg Mostly, by asking players warming up on the field to toss him balls, using a cup on a string to scoop up balls sitting on the gound near the fences in deserted parts of the bullpens, and attending games of teams with large stadiums and few fans, so he's the only fan, or one of the few fans, in whatever part of the outfield seats the current hitter is most likely to hit the ball. The fewer fans at the game, the less the ushers try to stop fans from moving from the cheaper seats beyond and near the outfield walls to empty, more expensive seats near home plate and the infield, as the game goes on, and even less, from moving from seats in one part of the outfield to seats in another part of it, so he has even more of the outfield seats areas where the balls are most likely to land to himself.

[@MikeFarnhamGalaxysEdgeGroup]

@@xfhnhhgjbvcfg you are missing something. he gets 5-10 balls or more per game. You need to watch more of his videos.

[@xfhnhhgjbvcfg]

@@MikeFarnhamGalaxysEdgeGroup well the first line in the video says he had a streak of at least 1 ball per game for 25 years, 523 was the total. That is literally what he says. You need to rewatch the first two minutes of the video

[@chanceyg7804]

@@xfhnhhgjbvcfg I think everyone should go back and watch the video again; he said ONE THOUSAND, 523. Quite the difference. Plus, because of his popularity over the last 5-10 years, I’m assuming his ball per game average has increased significantly just due to the ability to monetize his hobby and connections with the teams/players/staff

[@jm4687]

He saw how happy people were when they caught balls at the game and decide to steal that from anyone in reach lol

[@zackhample]

There no "lol" in posting rude comments, and FYI, I've probably given more baseballs to people than anybody.

[@hope42]

I got addicted to giving a cute kid decked out in baseball gear the balls i snagged. Had to be over 500. Best catch was sneaking into the 1984 world series game.

[@AL4NGDROE]

So is every single ball in his collection one that he actually caught himself or are some just ones he ended up with from games he was at but others caught. Or even caught by people he brought with him.

[@justincahill85]

He got them by pushing kids and old people. Then he complains when others block his way. I used to like Hample. Then he got an ego. Hample shouldn't decide who gets balls that are tossed to him. Those shouldn't even count towards his total. He's the toss up guy not the foul ball guy or homerun guy. 95% of his balls are tossed to him by players. Probably because they thought he was slow.

[@carterk9681]

He caught the ball though and he gives 90% of his balls to kids and players

[@schauber95]

My brother and I were sitting front row in center field when the Angels played the White Sox in Chicago in 2019. He came down and sat in an open seat next to us and made it difficult to watch the game. He was trying to get camera views from one of his film guys. Different guy when not on camera.
