Jackson Holliday is driving me CRAZY

I paid a LOT for a rental car and drove all the way from NYC to Baltimore to see MLB's top prospect . . . only to find out that he had JUST been sent to the minor leagues. BOOOOOO!!!! But hey, Camden Yards is still an amazing place, so it's not like the entire day was a waste.
The Baltimore Orioles were facing the Oakland Athletics, and do you want to guess who caught a Cedric Mullins home run?! Yeah, not me but my friend did, and it was a personal milestone for him.
Do you like the t-shirt that was wearing? Pick one up for yourself and check out the rest of my merch:

This game took place on April 26, 2024. The video was filmed and edited by Rachel Messbauer. Thanks for watching!

[@Rickyfyied]

1:55 that was nice of the little As fan to not try and jump on that ball. I'm glad he got one in the end!

[@johnwaire58]

Thanks for giving my son that ball Zack!

[@zackhample]

You’re welcome!

[@TJtheking8]

Hi Zack love the video keep up the work

[@briantampa1164]

Zach I think it's really nice that you take the time to seek out each comment. I commented last week on you meeting the Philly Captain and Luke and glad that you two shook hands. I also find it cool that you don't ask for a Super Chat. Keep up the amazing work and hopefully see you in Tampa St Pete sometime. Stay safe out there

[@mikeymike8065]

i've been kinda binge watching your vid, love the content. Mad respect for always tossing a ball to the nearest youngster.

[@Ayden_Tempesta]

I’ve still gotta get used to that horrendous wall setup in left, but happy to see that despite that you still managed to snag a few homers! Speaking of that, congrats to Tim! And trust me, your time for #97 is coming VERY soon, I can sense it!!!

[@zackhample]

I am reeeeeeally not feeling 97 anytime soon. This is bad.

Hey Zack nice Vid I’ve got a question if there are going to be any commemorative baseballs this year besides the postseason if so what teams?

[@zackhample]

Padres I think are the only team that has one all season long for their 20th anniversary at Petco.

[@aidanfinkofficial]

Great video, Zack. Love youuuuu. Sorry that your home run luck this year has been so shitty. I saw the replay of the McCarthy home run for today and hoping you got it but feel like it’s unlikely or guessing you would have posted something on your story and you haven’t updated your lists yet. Hope I’m wrong. But yeah, hopefully you can erase that goose egg in the home run column for 2024 soon if you didn’t get that one. Seems like getting to 100 home runs this year is unlikely at this moment, but hopefully you can have some good luck going soon like you did at times last year and recent years.

[@zackhample]

Thanks. I did not get that home today but came DAMN close. And then I woulda had the Adley homer except I lost it in the sun. So stupid. This season is cursed.

[@aidanfinkofficial]

It was nice seeing you again at Camden Yards. I also looked in that same gap to see if there were any balls to cup trick and now, I know why there wasn't any lol. I still managed to get two balls. One in BP and a Third Out ball tossed up by A's 1st baseman, Tyler Nevin in the 1st inning.

[@zackhample]

Nicely done and sorry (but not THAT sorry) that I beat you to the gap.

[@cowhand6112]

During the game. Standing in the back. Can barely see parts of the field. Seemed like "fun at the old ballpark" had been replaced with "this is a job and it stinks". Enjoyment level looked pretty low. Better luck next time.

[@zackhample]

Not a great place to see but it IS a great place to catch home runs, so that's the trade-off. I'm actually taking my "job" less seriously by doing what I personally want. And what I want isn't to be everyone's tour guide, but rather to catch four more home runs and reach 100 lifetime. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

[@joeyt.]

Not to rain on your parade but why don't you just hop on a train, catch a cab/uber to the park. You will save money, catch a nap while in transit and not worry about parking, gas and insurance. FYI, remember which I am sure you know that in the older days of baseball teams travelled by train. Sounds like more fun and even meeting up with other travellers. Enjoy the senior traveller.

[@zackhample]

I'd have to leave my place 45 minutes before the train leaves, take the subway with all my crap to Penn Station, buy two train tickets (including for my videographer), then Uber to the hotel? Drop my stuff off? Uber to the stadium? Uber back to the hotel after the game? Bleccchhh!

[@KyleKeenan-x8w]

Yo Zack, I remember meeting you in 2004 when cbp opened up and I was using the cup trick and you were using just a rubber band around ur glove. Sadly Ryan madson had Jason Michaels throw me a ball to the warning track and asked me to show Jason how it was done!! Little did I know Ryan would pull scissors out of his back pocket and cut the string. Ryan was is center field ducking and dodging baseballs that day 😂😂😂😂 keep following ur passion and god bless pal 🙏

[@zackhample]

Oh man, that sucks! I never understood why players went after fans like that. But hey, I'm glad our paths crossed.

[@KyleKeenan-x8w]

@@zackhample madson thought I was a 16 year old kid in it for profit motives & it was the complete opposite, I just loved the game and all Phillies players. Maybe he thought he was a big shot & couldn't see that I was just a kid. Last couple of times I seen him he said to me "oo god what did I do now" I guess he just couldn't accept me as a fan of his or his head was just to big I'm unsure but I do forgive the guy. We'll cross paths again I know ur in Philly alot at the bank but until then stay blessed pal 🙏

What is the best and worst stadium that has the best food u like to eat

Can’t go wrong at SF Giants Oracle Park, especially with the garlic fries. Lived out in SF 10 years but most friends were A’s fans went to Oakland A’s stadium which is absolutely horrendous in every way imaginable. The team, fans, staff, food, etc… yeah, do not go there EVER

Dodgers stadium had or maybe has an all you can eat section of I remember correctly, that was pretty awesome too

Legends at Yankee Stadium is my top choice. Oakland is probably last.
