My baseball bat collection -- game-used, signed by A-Rod, and more!

[@pshaw1632]

Little did he know that he would get a mike trout bat soon

[@ML27.]

Ikr

[@kathymorse8561]

and a alex blandino bat

[@ac1ivate770]

Yup

[@bballboy5734]

Yea

[@ThomasRoberts08]

I was wondering why he isn sho that

[@ianlamont825]

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?

[@sambastardo9686]

At 9:35 this guy doesn’t even care that he can use the force 🤣🤣

[@alexdodge2515]

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

[@ryanensley6126]

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.

[@joebob344]

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.

[@zackhample]

VERY cool. And thanks for watching.

[@melvin4040]

Another great video. Love the stories and history behind the bats. Keep up the great work....

[@Nomah1979]

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

[@mosesdenton7756]

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.

[@Nicholaskcl]

As a native from Montreal I have to say I am most jealous of your Expos bat, even over that from Arod and trout.

[@bbecker27]

Huge brewer fan, I would love that Villar bat lol

[@zackhample]

I would love it too.

[@bowiebaker5322]

That's a big-ass rubber band ball

[@hughmungus6595]

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

[@briancantu494]

Hugh Mungus

[@ahadnazirchaudhary2383]

It's zack you dolt.

[@ducks840]

Hugh Mungus actually odds are you won’t make it to the majors but ok.

[@alexandershaer1079]

DucksMC he means the ones who will make it

[@ducks840]

Alexander Shaer ok

[@Chewbacca89]

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

[@todd_on_bikes]

Good stuff, Zack!

[@zackhample]

Coming from YOU of all people, that means a lot.

Thanks.

[@BoojSportsCards]

Zack, you should show the rest of your game used items! Im gonna do one sometime soon too!

[@ZGBrickfilms]

Nice collection! I have a Tommy Greene autographed bat that I won last year. It wasn’t game used but is still awesome

[@evanbrockway7732]

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.

[@GustavoGonzalez-gr4co]

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

[@Maxoman_is_awesome]

Oh I remembe watching the Andres Blanca broken bat

[@chasemoretz5407]

Love your rated rookies shirt

[@MattFromWork]

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.

[@brendancoulson1322]

MattFromWork they renamed it the DJ2

[@jerryh6284]

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 ✌️❤️

[@187tynes]

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

[@matthewmirowski4267]

Cool collection. Especially the Expos one.

[@zackhample]

Thanks.

[@mkf541]

8:33... YT profile pic. Always wondered what that picture was from.

[@zackhample]

I definitely want to do a video there.

[@zciweikram]

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.

[@slay985]

Scott Markiewicz that’s pretty cool. He was a favorite here in MN. Slick player.

[@zackhample]

Coolness.

[@elijahmaas5422]

Q and a question who do you think will win it all this year

[@gageboles4806]

You should also make a video of you playing baseball with one of those nine broken bats! It would be really cool.

[@hamzaziz2000]

can you even get a game used bat from the dugout with the new netting anymore?

[@diegoqr972]

Hamza Aziz maybe but it’s much more difficult

[@zackhample]

Probably not in most places.

[@joeybears2483]

Thanks! I loved him when he first came up.

[@mr.pugman123]

Little did he know he Would get one from Mike Trout days later

[@rcmadness13]

Zack, you should of sprinkled a little salt on the table. Keep them from rolling. I can see you put some time into setting up your bats before your shoot. Haha. Good work, jealous, I wish I got into baseball sooner. My grandfather passed and I only used to watch the jays with him on Vancouver island vacations. Almost 21 months later I wish I could go to every game and do what your doing!!! So awesome!
