Playing baseball AT WRIGLEY FIELD with Willson Contreras!

[@jr13227]

I sit in the bleachers at Wrigley a lot, and whenever Wilson comes out early before the game to warm up the starter, I can just see how genuine and amazing he is. He always talks to people in the bleachers and has a great time with us. It's so amazing to have this guy on my favorite team.

[@zackhample]

I'm so glad to hear that he's friendly to everyone all the time -- and not surprised.

[@shuuyt9703]

Nice job zack!

[@elandtee4398]

jr132 lol Willson is the same guy who throws baseballs 100+ MPH into the stands in Busch. Also the same guy who said he was better than Yadi. He isn't.

[@CubsBaseball]

Cy Mikolas looks like we have a salty cardinals fan, who tf cares if he throws baseballs 100+ MPH into the stands? And im pretty sure he is now as good as Yadi because hes aging and Wilson is playing just as well as him rn.

[@elandtee4398]

Cubs Baseball Yadi's stats are better. And the problem with throwing a ball 100+ MPH in the stands is that somebody could get hurt. Remember last year when a ball got hit in the stands and nearly killed a child?

[@amarts5430]

How do you stay hydrated? “lots of water” Zack:And a lot of Gatorade too” Man these paid promotions 🤣

[@MrBriYT]

Ikr lol

[@GoldGlove303]

Man Wilson Contreras just seems like an all around genuine guy. Awesome!

[@marcosmunoz3046]

My son never stopped smiling while we were watching this! Wilson is one of his favorite players and that was a great chance to see him be a “regular guy”. Great show!!!!

[@mtndewman1022]

3:50 "and a lot of gatorade too, right?" *cashier sounds *

[@jakebenn1860]

7:20 “I’ll grab you a Gatorade” what a kiss up and he seems so annoyed

[@Blkgladiator]

It's an ad 😂

[@charlielott9751]

I don’t think Wilson said three words before zack cut him off

[@oricraft6747]

Usually while plugging Gatorade

[@jadex9771]

Damn Zack can Wilson get a word in?? Hella interrup..*INTERUPTING*-Zack

[@SirJD_]

I thought the same.

[@lukepedrigi1378]

The amount of forced Gatorade references has me dead.

[@blackpantherdemitrius1790]

[@jimmy1418]

“Ill grab you a gatorade, you look like you need one” 💀

[@DawsonWright]

MLB community needs more videos like this. Love it when players get involved. Good video Zack - DW 🤘🏻

[@zackhample]

Thanks, DW.

[@goodgoinowen8037]

I love you dawson

[@riverboyp6471]

Alright Zach we get the point but let Wilson speak for God sake 🙏

[@tylergriffin7915]

RiverBoy P THANK YOU SOMEONE SAID IT😂😂

[@shaindaman13]

I love my Cubbies. We are so lucky to have so many standout guys like Wilson. And Im not just talking great players. I mean sincerely genuine Men of Character. The entire game needs more of what we have been blessed with in Wrigleyville.

[@ST-vu3ph]

Willson says "We are going to have fun first". What a gem! Best of luck Willson!

[@asaostrow7987]

"Why is he able to do that but I can't?" LOL😂😂😂

[@1189paris]

Probably one of the best baseball videos on KZbin. Zack, you really should do more interviews with the players and instructional videos on baseball if you can.

[@lauren62able]

1189paris the best

[@zackhample]

I would love to.

[@ryanmcintosh8222]

Williston is trying to finish a scentence but Zach keeps on cutting him of

[@RetailRipper]

“Woooo what a day. First id like to thank my sponsor over at Gatorade. Without them we couldn’t be here. Felt good all day ya know. Hydration was key. Replenishing those electrolytes we lost helped keep the swings going. Great performance.”

[@GDDeroEX913]

4:50 when he hit the ball I flinched 😂😂😂

[@tri27607]

I like how Zack just interrupts Wilson in like the first part of the video

[@henerith4510]

He was trying to hard with the whole Gatorade thing

[@MiguelMartinez-op5wp]

I sure could go for a Powerade right about now

[@markschloss511]

Miguel Martinez lol

[@fate3300]

Sox fan?

[@devosteez]

best comment of the year

[@dathneygrooms5862]

Miguel Martinez lol

[@jack-ww1yc]

This changed my whole perspective on Willson, I’m a die hard Cardinals fan but I have a whole new perspective on him. He’s just awesome.

[@zackhample]

I'm glad to hear that.

[@DionysusAlS]

Well, he's on your team now.

[@Bozo_Lord]

3:51 shameless plug for the sponsor lmaoooo great video tho zack GO CUBS!

[@johnnym2710]

Wrigley field is a magical place of history.

[@boblindner5808]

One of my favorite Zach Hample videos. I'm from Connecticut, a Yankees fan like my dad. I'm 63 years old, my wife and my kids/grands know this is one of my most favorite channels. And yes, my grands love our Zach Hample bobblehead.

[@pdubs7069]

What a good guy Willson seems to be... I can't believe you didn't give him a grape Gatorade!!

[@anthonyking5393]

He kept speaking over him

[@Analblockage]

Could barely understand him to begin with.

[@erniesanchez1022]

2 major memories from wrigley: 1. Nailed with a foul ball in the head 2. Going on the field and getting to play and hit (I was 5 for 1 and 6-7 for the second)

[@maxbob8474]

Wilson was so chill that’s dope 😂

[@genedelagarza7886]

This wasn't a bad sponsered video honestly. I enjoyed watching it even though I knew the Gatorade sponsorship was all over it. Good job Hample!

[@zackhample]

Thanks! Glad you get it.

[@yojaredmurcio9573]

Zack after every drill:"gatorade"

[@Gabe_Shiesty]

This is actually a really cool video. No one else gets to get this close with major leaguers. I wish more players were willing to make videos like this.

[@portlandcardcompany5793]

Have Gatorade pay them some money and they will. :)

[@zackhample]

Thanks, glad you liked it.

[@crabbyeric900]

The shameless advertising at 3:50 got me 🤣🤣

[@jalengutierrez7813]

If I got 100 dollars every time he interrupted Wilson I would have 1000 dollars

[@Anthony-df4bs]

3:50 nice ad placement, zack lol

[@jackcordingley7976]

He was trying sooo hard with adding little things about Gatorade. lol

[@xdawgplayz8071]

You were annoying Wilson you were interrupting him so much

[@paddyvlogs8889]

Mr yeet you were annoying him so much

[@larrysettle7952]

Dude shut up Wilson had no problem you just wish you could be Zack

[@xdawgplayz8071]

I’m not saying bad things about him I’m just saying he should let him speak

[@zackhample]

We did several takes. I needed to step up and help get through it.

[@xdawgplayz8071]

Hey Zach man what’s up I love your vids love ya man I don’t have any thing against you man sorry for my comment

[@alextahl7141]

Zack: I do not have a protective cup today Wilson: Looks down

[@robbyb9800]

This video is so good. It has helped me out and practice this stuff everyday.

[@duffyy1]

Class act player! Cubbies are lucky to have him

[@Hitit123]

Best video so far! Love both these guys!👊🤙

[@chrisogg4764]

The hitting tips were simple but the catching tips were fenominal

[@itzliam8188]

Z Porple 😂 4:05

[@cld_blaze6587]

ze poopoo

[@shadedaniels7076]

Wilson is the best catcher he is so nice and just got a new big fan I know he wont see this but its so cool to see a major league player taking the time out hos his day to teach thousands of kids like me how to catch and hit better!!!!!! Thank you so much Wilson!!!!

[@tonyadowd7642]

wilson is the most honest person

[@ec1300_]

I was at Wrigley Field about an hour after he filmed this and I found a ball in the bushes outside of the stadium on Waveland Avenue.

[@sabbakandegregor9874]

This player is a fucking sick guy, so polite and open to listen

[@thekirklandbombers105]

You can tell Gatorade sponsored it😅

[@blakekogelmann6111]

The Kirkland Bombers he literally said it

[@thekirklandbombers105]

I know my point is if he didn't say it you would still know😂

[@venom1744]

“i’m just as tall how am I not hitting like you?” Jose Altuve: Hold my buzzer

[@shannonwilliams1941]

Zack really is a good player! That’s awesome thanks for sharing all those tips with Wilson!

[@patdonovan85]

The Gatorade plugs were super awkward. Wilson was a great sport though!

[@jonathanmontag2006]

When he was tryin to get him to talk about gatorade

[@lvi185]

Looks like gatorate was the sponsor just guessing tho

[@xanderlumsden298]

Willy is my favorite player in the whole league! Go Cubbies!

[@epicgamerman4268]

Willson: Talks baseball knowledge. Zack: YAH!

[@ImRicharizard]

You’re so lucky! I was on the field once for a tour when I was 6, but to play with Willson Contreras takes that to a completely different level! He’s one of my favorite players and I think it’s so awesome you got to meet him.

[@zackhample]

Thanks! Very lucky. Glad you enjoyed this.

[@masoncalgaro3585]

July 2019 anyone

[@raymondrose1065]

Wilson comes across as a great guy

[@marymann2493]

How many times he cut him off 👇

[@loothunter22]

The people who disliked this video are haters. Real genuine guy with a lot of knowledge of the game. Good video zack!

[@firstflightoutdoors2076]

My guy Willson can’t get a sentence out

[@petepav12]

Sounds a bit different coming off the bat from him You think

[@bluetigergaming123]

Contreras is my favorite catcher

[@GainesvilleBlitzballLeague]

When people dont realize this was a Gatorade promotion

[@colebaker9146]

The shameless gatorade plugs😂

[@sonofsarek]

This is the best gatorade commercial I have seen in years.

[@jimmyj944]

Zach you interrupt too much when someone else speaks

[@jackfrankenfield7407]

Since I saw him debut i always saw potential in him and I met him and got his autograph at spring training and he is a really nice guy

[@StayConnectedEV]

Zack this is the best episode ever!!! Great job and thanks Gatorade!

[@zackhample]

Thank you so much! Glad you enjoyed it.

[@StayConnectedEV]

Zack Hample loved it and you did well on that swing! Looks like you hit the cages to prep for this.

[@SomeoneElsesStory]

Dude! This was amazing! What a day!!

[@zackhample]

Thanks!

[@BaseballRoadTripper]

There is no such thing as hyperbole when it comes to describing the thought of getting to have this experience. Holy sh*t!

[@zackhample]

Ha, well said, my friend.

[@CheeseMasterSports]

Willson Contreras gave me a ball when he was playing in AA with the Tennessee Smokies. Who knew then what he would become

[@kellilawrence2133]

Zack your videos always get better I’m a true og and just keep grinding man

[@yeandiaz9651]

Hey Zach, I know this an old video but how amazing was this!!! Willson Contreras is one of the most humble players out there!!!

[@aaronm3601]

Not a Cubs fan, but I know Willson Contreras is one of the best catchers in the league

[@Bc232klm]

If he could frame as well as he throws, he would be!

[@whiskeyblood7258]

That Gatorade plug in the hydration question lol love it

[@willsuslow4487]

Contreras says he has 2 Gatorades per inning. That’s 18 per game 😂Wilson is crazy

[@nighthawk7x203]

"Im up there no pressure!" Instantly kills the cameraman

[@petepav12]

Nighthawk7x20 lol

[@donkeydrop]

Love it! Thank you Zac and WC! Top blokes!

[@berniesandersdog3349]

Zack is so lucky, I've always dreamed of going down on the field at Wrigley and meeting players. I'm planning on becoming a ball boy so that dream may come true.

[@zackhample]

Good luck. :)

[@JoshDoesTravel]

3:51 This portion of the video is presented by Gatorade. Gatorade, because water isn’t good enough

[@Louchapp13]

“Don’t try and hit a home run.” They shoulda talked abt javy lol

[@TheClawNinja]

Insanely jealous! That would have been so much fun!

[@suebrady5926]

God bless them both, such humble people!

[@zackhample]

Aww, I appreciate that.

[@patton303]

Can you imagine willfully letting some dude throw 100mph rockets right at you? Add to that a guy on first is trying to steal 2nd so you have to catch that crazy ass ball and then throw it as hard as you can 85ft without hitting the pitcher? Catcher is the most underrated position in baseball.

[@elijahdavidson486]

Thats why they make more money than the average person 😂

[@twinscecil3492]

127ft not 85

[@guccislides14]

Wilson is a freaking beast

[@aayden]

damn zack, i didn't know you had a decent canon...

[@MrRadiofreak08]

that is great biggest Cubs fan ever I did not get to go to Wrigley as much after I left the city but when I was living there i went to so many games love it!

[@JI24prodz]

Love the vids to every day I see if you posted anything 😂

[@sarge-cp8yq]

Even as a Cardinals fan, mad respect for Wilson

[@berrytharp1334]

It isn't the players' fault that Cub fans suck so bad.

[@danr154]

And honestly the real ones appreciate Yadi in return btw.

[@dylannn2008]

I also love Grape Gatorade! It is 100% my favorite!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@Acalabrese2277]

Who shakes there Gatorade before drinking it

[@richardelmes984]

Thank you Gatorade (and Seat Geek) for recognizing how you can bring a fan perspective to the major leagues. Other sponsors should take note.

[@zackhample]

Amen!

[@izitsquare8947]

Watching a MLB catcher catch a ball is so satisfying
