Why is this video so long? Because it was an EPIC day at Target Field. Chicago White Sox pitcher Dylan Cease helped get the action started by throwing a baseball to me in the second deck, but the main story was the pre-game ceremony for Hall of Famer Jim Kaat. From the bobblehead giveaway to the former Minnesota Twins legends in attendance (Rod Carey, Tony Oliva, Kent Hrbek, and more) to the commemorative balls in use during the game, there was truly no shortage of excitement.
Shoutout to a young man named Trey Redman -- a HUGE fan whom I met during the late innings. Unfortunately I didn't get any video footage with him, but I want everyone reading this to know that he's awesome.

This video was filmed on July 16, 2022 by "Fenway Chris" (@yonnernyc) and it was edited by Zac Gutherman (@zg_films). Thanks for watching!

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
Thank you sooooo much! Glad you're enjoying them. One of my favorite things in the word (not limited to baseball) is getting people into the things that I'm into. Thanks for joining me on this wild ride.
@@zackhample the team i batboy for is a twins scout from 1985-now and has every unused box of commemorative balls and we actually go 5 of these and Allstar games so its cool
@@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!).
@@zackhample there's a commemorative ball for more guys this year ik this cause we have some in our club hous
I grew up in Minnesota and have been a Twins fan all of my life. This video was fun to see. Thanks! So awesome you got a commemorative baseball at Target Field. Thank you for your tips and tricks. I was able to help my daughter get an autograph from Byron Buxton when the Twins were playing the Angels last week. Means the world to us! Thank you
That's a cool Keith Haring tee you're sporting ; the ' Radiant Baby'. Bringing a little culture amongst the masses is always a good thing. Congrats on snagging a Kaat commemorative, Zack!
Thanks so much! I love his work and I'm glad to share it on a small scale.
Yessir please come back to target field this season!!!🥺🥺🥺

PROFESSIONALS. Great work guys!!! And Fenway Chris is the MVP. 🎥🏆Thanks for bringing us along on this Master Class, Z! 💪🙏🥳
I knew sending positive vibes and energy to Zack in Minnesota it would happen. Sure would like to know how the #BUDLIGHTFORFENWAYCHRIS Campaign is going. I see he did get a free beer. As long as they keep coming it's all good. Love the video Zack.
Wassup Zack! I’m heading to the Braves v. D-Backs game and was watching your 2019 Tokyo Opening Day vid! Thanks for everything you do!
Thank YOU for contributing to the view tally on my top vid of all time. :)
Beautiful stadium! So advanced environmentally and technologically. It's a very, very clean stadium.
Great video as always, my idol. Glad you got your hands on a few of the Jim Kaat balls. Shoutout to Fenway Chris behind the camera for delivering excellent footage as always. And shoutout to Trey, I’ve seen him leave lots of comments on Instagram. Even that he claims to be your #1 fan and obviously I am, he’s the man!
All about positioning and your years of experience! So cool you all got one, all in the 1st inning!!! ⚾️
Zack I was watching this game at home and I seen you on TV it was so cool to see you someplace else than your videos. Love your channel keep it up man!🙂
Thanks! Glad you saw me.
Zack!
Can Judge get to 73??? He's picking up the pace! He's rocking the homers and up to 40 today!

@Zack Hample That's awesome that you were at Target field to see Jim Kaat, I've already been there once this year, and that was the game that I asked if you were gonna be there and you said no, but I'm going back up there August 6th for my early birthday present, since my birthday is August 11th.
Cool, I hope it's a great b-day for you.
@@zackhample thank you so much🙂
I love your content Zack. Keep up the good work!
Thanks!
Sweet video Zack! Congratulations on getting the special ball.
Always fun to see you catch the special commemorative balls like that! Always fun to see your videos and all the fun you and Fenway Chris have on the trips going to the games- it is always fun to see! Look forward to seeing what you do next and for the rest of the 2022 season!!!!
Thank you!
Thank you!

Keep killing it Zack!
After the smaller logos on the balls the last couple years, its refreshing to see such a solid, decent sized logo on a baseball this year. Well done Minnesota and well done Zack!
Yes! Totally agree.
love watching you videos makes me so happy when I see you uploaded!!
Congrats on the Kaat Ball so Awesome.
Hello Zach I'm so happy for you to get that ball I tried to get it but we couldn't get caught near going to Mexico tomorrow
You are the GOAT Zack! Crazy impressive!
Target Field is a great ballpark. Glad you could visit again!
I love Dylan cease! He’s such a nice guy and he’s my favorite pitcher in the mlb
Been watching your vids for about 2 weeks now. Just realized I wasn't subscribed! I fixed that. That is so impressive how you've been able to get so many baseballs! #1 ball hawk for sure.
Ball magnet !!!!! Good for you buddy and congratulations
Fenway Chris appreciation thread. A lover of beer, sass, lenses, and ladies. You balance and keep Zack humble. You're an MVP. I raise my beer to you sir, cheers.
Haha..Thank you! Love the slogan! Might use that on a shirt.
i'm totally buying Fenway Chris a beer if i ever see him, what a legend with that camera 🙏
Great vid as always Zack, such a stunning stadium! Need to visit, hard from the UK though! 🏴
Lmao I had to pause and watch again because I didn't think they were waving at you. Then I saw your caption. That's classic.
Me personally never seen big rare home runs without you catching at least one of them
So glad to see you in Minnesota zack!!! What are the odds the twins take BP during a matinee game on a wednesday?!?! I’d love to try and catch a ball. Keep up the great work and try to have some fun 😉
great vid man love ya content
It’s always a good video when seatgeek sponsors the vid
And Volaris Airlines!
at 7:40 zack is dancing LOL (terribly) LOL love the video
I actually saw you catch it live on tv! I recognized you! Congrats!
I love the energy at Minnesota it seems so quiet there
Can I ask where you're from
Man, I wish I would have known you were there! I saw the guy with the glove suit several times before and during the game!
Meeting you this day was definitely a highlight of my trip. Thank you again for both your autograph and Fenway chris 🙏🏼
Your welcome!
@@FenwayChris ❤️🙏🏼
my first trip to Minnesota was early in the season when correa started playing for the twins. still a fan. hopefully in the future he goes to a better team.
Nice zack keep doing what you do 😎👍
19:50 gotta love the effort by Tim Anderson 😂
What’s up Zack? Second time I have been to a game that you were at that I somehow have not seen you 😂
Very fun stadium.
I’m going to Fenway tomorrow I am so excited I love it there so much.
D'oh! Maybe the third time will be the charm.
@@zackhample 3rd times the charm indeed
FREAKING AWESOME!!! That’s my favorite catch of yours so far man. Watching these videos has reminded me of why I fell in love with baseball as a kid and really rekindled my love of this sport as I’m sure it has with many other viewers.!Thanks man!
Awesome video sir thanks for though jin katt ceremony
The throw to the upper deck gotcha a thumbs up!
Good job on this one I like the channel my son and I watch thank you
The “thanks Zack” was awesome. Kid knows your name!
I can see 12,000 on the horizon! Another great video Zack!
Zack just shows up to stadiums expecting game balls and just gets them. Amazing.
I probably won't bat a thousand this year but so far so good.
You're the man, Zack Hample.
Thanks!
Dude I knew there was one day this year I wanted to go to Target Field but I didn't get that opportunity. I'll have to make sure to go the next time you're in town.
I'm sure Fenway Chris likes the acknowledgement but would most likely appreciate some suds even more!
I'm so happy for Kaat getting to enjoy the number retirement as well as the HOF entry as it was a long time coming. No classier guy in Baseball than the Kitty.
I was there! I was the kid who had you sign the napkin.
I remember seeing you at this very awesome game
Good vid too that ball sick
these videos rock zack
Just caught my double digit (8th-11th) baseball at T-Mobile Park on July 28th! Thank you so much for being an inspiration and a great role model. Onto 25 baseballs.
Nice! You can do it.
@@zackhample Quick question. Do you know if the Rangers bring their commemorative balls for away games? Currently based in Seattle with little funds to go out of state so I was hoping to snag a ball when they come play the Ms.
Looks like Fenway Chris has his own Streak going keep it up bud
Cheers! 🍻
Keep up your work and can’t wait to see the next stadium if you do can you bring your big glove to the stadium
I was there at Target Field in the Donaldson shirt at 2:12 I didn't see Zack Hample or Fenway Chris I'm sad that I didn't get to meet a baseball catching legend.
Fenway Chris on the board first 😆 that was a funny line Zack. I believe we have to start counting his free beers. Whats his lifetime total lol great video
More than his ball total for sure!!
Let’s go another banger video
You are the goat at catching balls I’m a huge fan
when you said its a slugfest today... that game on ps2 was so fun haha especially when you got hit by pitch
Hey Zack..just wanted to see if you’ll be heading back to Fenway again this year? I’m making my first trip to Fenway on Sept 3…vs Texas Rangers! It would be so awesome to meet you!!
Zack Amazing video
Thanks, M Billy.
Fenway Chris is on the board first with his beer as Zack works the field for a toss-up. (Do you read my comments Fenway Chris?). 1 and a 2 and 3 everybody together says, "SEAT GEEK" Great catch in the Upper Deck and what an appreative fan. Thank You Zack. A ball hawk in a custom is hard computation. "Flask Back: Thanks for showings the Twins players from the 1970's that I grew up with. I remember when I saw my very first Red Sox Game 1969 and Rod Carew was on First Base." Hi Greg and Mr. World Wide and Fenway Chris again" BASEBALL FOOD SEGMENT - What you eating there Zack spooning from the cup? SHOUT OUT to Zacks Number 1 Employee Fenway Chris.😃
You know this is Better than Bob Hope and Bing Crosby on the Road.
Zack you make it look so easy to get these balls 😂, bro I tried like heck the two times I went to Target Field in Minneapolis could not even come close to get 1 and in 2018 going to the roger centre absolutely no luck 😂 I don’t know how you do it lol
Glad I could get Chris on the board!
Haha!! 👊
Thank you again!!
Love your videos😊
:)
Zack I’m a huge fan, I just wanna know when are you going to come to Truist Park to catch some balls and see the World Series champs. Would love to catch you here!
Man, you got an absolute pearl!
Another banger video!!!!
Thanks!
Geez, Zack, what is Chris' favorite city? Your loyal videographer even smiled a few times, and I only saw two beers. You've gotta respect the videographer. They may edit creatively, if you know what I mean? It's Milwaukee, isn't it (Beer)?
im the kid in the abreu jersey😂. thanks for filming me trying to get a ball on the 3b side
dude the around the world music in the seat geek promotion is so damn funny!!! well it think that's the music lol
you should go to petco park on august third would love to see you!
Love the Keith Haring tee 👌
Thanks!
Zack you coming down to the west coast lol we need love too 😂 maybe angels or dodgers stadium
Yo ZACK
I LOVE YOUR VIDS
But anyways can you tell me when you will be at the Tropicana field again
Can't wait for the GABP HR video 👀
That ending is crazy
Great video Zack! Definitely putting that stadium on my list !
Was wondering what you think of changes Toronto is going to make to the outfield for next season? Will you go this season before the changes ?
I always see a lot of blue jay fans in Minnesota
Hey Zack will you go to Toronto more once the Reno’s are done
We’re missing you up here
Greg talking about the weakest logo, I wonder who had the weakest logo…
(I love you, Greg. You beat me nearly every single time in every single way.)
Haha, got heeeeeeeeem.
Can we do a beer count for Fenway Chris at games? See who gets one first between you with a ball and him with beer, see who gets the most, any special ones, etc??
