Pretending to be injured to troll the fans at Camden Yards

This player on the Arizona Diamondbacks had fun messing with Orioles fans -- and then his team got beat. Serves him right! (But actually it was pretty funny.)
And meanwhile, there are ass-slaps, and then there are ASS-SLAPS, and if you watch this video all the way through, you'll see poor "Ron" being on the receiving end of the latter. This might in fact be the most powerful ass-slap in the history of Major League Baseball. Think about how teammates congratulate each other after big moments; high-fives are often exchanged with gusto, but when (presumably) heterosexual men are moved to touch each other's buttocks, it's usually done as a subdued formality. But here on the Flag Court in Baltimore, this was a premeditated and -- dare I say! -- violent and non-consensual ass-slap perpetrated against the unsuspecting Ron. And yet our subject seemed okay with it, perhaps too distracted by the adrenaline of having snagged a game-used baseball to fully notice what had just transpired. Or maybe Ron was fully aware but didn't want to give any attention (positive or negative) to his "friendly" attacker. It's a compelling case study in the behavior of young adult inebriated males, and I must admit that I was glad to witness it. What's YOUR interpretation of this most peculiar and entertaining situation?
Aside from the "Ron" incident and other drunken hijinks, there was an interleague MLB game being played between the Baltimore Orioles and Arizona Diamondbacks. I arrived late at the stadium, and there was no batting practice because of crappy weather, so I faced quite a challenge from a ballhawking perspective, but hey, Camden Yards is incredible. That's all there is to it.
This video was filmed on May 10, 2024 by Rachel Messbauer, and it was edited by Zac Gutherman (@zg_films). Thanks for watching!

Yessir!

[@Ayden_Tempesta]

Awesome vid Zack! Between the description and the actual moment itself, I don’t think I’ve laughed this hard in a while, and I’ve been in need of some good laughs recently so that’s much appreciated. And hey, the day may have been tough ball hawking wise, but the beauty of Camden (minus the left field wall) and that funny moment could make up for it!

[@aidanfinkofficial]

😂😂😂

[@zackhample]

Heh, thanks. I had fun with the description, but I ended up changing the title and thumbnail since it was off to a bad start, views-wise.

The intro gave me the old Zack Hample videos feel (kinda nice). Brings back mems… the early days of your KZbin channel when you had some intros when you were doing walk and talk intros in some vids before you started taking KZbin seriously.

[@zackhample]

Those early walk-n-talks were the result not not arriving at the stadium when I wanted to because someone else was in charge of the logistics.

[@aidanfinkofficial]

[@elhugo13]

this is the zack hample baltimore orioles season.

[@davidchodds]

Zack, I have an interesting question. That ball you caught (and actually had it in possession) but then you fumbled it and almost dropped it in the bullpen. Now, would you have counted that in your total had you dropped it or not counted it? Since you give so many balls away (oftentimes right after you catch a ball), was wondering how long would you have to be in possession before counting it. Am really interested in knowing the answer.

[@EstherPujols-tg8qt]

Great vid who’s your favorite team and player

[@aidanfinkofficial]

The Savannah Bananas and Mike Trout.

[@EstherPujols-tg8qt]

Love it

[@Djfjfjrhhrjrhrhfj]

Camden seems to be your favorite stadium. I haven't counted but feels like you go this this stadium more than any other.

[@aidanfinkofficial]

It used to be until the LF wall got extended and the gate times turned to 💩

[@zackhample]

I hope I end up there more than any other stadium.

[@Djfjfjrhhrjrhrhfj]

@@zackhample how do you determine what stadiums to go to? Just based on who is close to a milestone home run?

Question, at 3:45 if you would have caught it but then fumbled it to where you couldn’t get it, would that have counted? 🤔

Yo zack you should go to marlins stadium because there is not a lot of marlins fan there.And you will have a lot of space to catch a home run.

I had home run seats on Monday night May 20th at Dodger Stadium and I got stuck behind a multi-car accident and was 15 minutes late to BP. Fortunately, I got 2 baseballs. One a tossup that was dropped by fans in the bleachers onto the home run deck and another one was a tossup that I caught on the fly and several fans in the bleachers were trying to go for it too. I am sitting at 98 lifetime.

I live in Sandy, Utah, about 10 miles South of Downtown Salt Lake City, Utah. I am 39 years old and will be 40 years old on July 5. I want to attend a baseball game with Zack Hample, one of these days. Maybe Zack can come to a Salt Lake Bees Baseball Game, this season, in Salt Lake City, Utah, or maybe we can plan on going to a Major League Baseball Game, in Denver, in Phoenix, in LA, or someplace in California, later this season. Thank you. Thanks. Heavenly Father, Jesus Christ, and The Holy Ghost love you and are your best Friends you will always have. Smile and be happy. I love you. Stay out of trouble, Be safe and protected. Be kind with everyone and love everyone. I love you. You are a good person. You are awesome. You are worth it.
