    Zack, your energy and love of catching baseballs is contagious. I am absolutely loving these videos, you are one of the best RUclips channels I watch. Thanks for getting young people interested in the game as well. Wish you all the best my man

      @@zackhample Its really adds a different dimension to MLB youtube channels where the rest of the MLB youtube channels are more about news, stats and arguing over who has the best team, etc. While your channel really gives people at home watching youtube a different perspective about what its like to be in attendance of so many different stadiums and get to see parts of the stadiums most people usually don't get to see.

      Same here - I didn't know who Zack Hample was a few months ago, and now that I've found him, I can't stop watching these videos. To see the joy you get from being out there is contagious as Scott said. Love it! Hope to maybe see you at Oriole Park one day (the O's are my team!).
