I TOLD YOU I WOULD CATCH A HOME RUN!! Incredible luck at Kauffman Stadium

- Yes, I predicted that I would catch a home run AND IT HAPPENED. Kansas City Royals vs. Toronto Blue Jays? Sometimes I just FEEL it, and this was one of those days. With Vladimir Guerrero Jr. in the lineup along with George Springer, Bo Bichette, Matt Chapman -- and a bunch of sluggers for the home team like Salvador Perez, Carlos Santana, and Bobby Witt Jr., I had a hunch that baseballs would be flying. But guess what? The home run was hit by someone unexpected.
You know what else was fun? Catching a bunch of baseballs before the game (while the Blue Jays were warming up) and then going nuts in the all-you-can-eat area behind the center field wall. How many calories do you think I ate? Leave a comment and let me know.
If you're interested in seeing a list of ALL the game home runs that I've snagged from MLB games, check out this page on my website (and be advised that it looks better on desktop than mobile -- I'm in the process of getting everything sorted out with the mobile version of my site):

This video was filmed on June 8, 2022 by "Fenway Chris" (@yonnernyc on Insta), and it was edited by me. Thanks for watching!
Hey Zack I just got to go on a baseball trip to a few stadiums, and using some of your methods I was able to get a couple baseballs (and some autographs)! So, I can confirm, watching Zack Hample’s videos will make you a better ballhawk.
what stadiums?
@@ihateads123 Fenway, yankee, and Citi
Awesome! Glad to hear that.
82 home runs ?? That’s totally crazy lol I would think catching 1 in a life time is lucky . Haha
@@sconte0817 caught 2 in the playoffs last year in one game at fenway... thats crazy enough
The kid giving Zack a hug after signing the ball was so genuine!
Totally
thanks Zack for keeping baseball alive for the kids.... it reminds me of going to my first baseball game in 1975 and watching the Pittsburgh Pirates....
Thank YOU! Sounds like a great memory.
@@zackhample I am stoked to hear from you! Thank you so much
Zack Hample is absolutely the best! He's so nice and generous! Baseball games are so much better when he attends. Hope I get to meet him someday, at a game.
Saw him at a game last night in Milwaukee. Seems like a pretty cool guy.
@@kylegross1081 oh that's awesome he sure is
I will likely unload in the Philly video, so here is just a precursor.
Don't at me, Zack is a perfect example of making baseball fun again. Just watch and see how the kids love him (that DOES NOT qualify him as a creep btw) and how generous he genuinely is!
I feel like Zach has a b roll of that every game until he finally caught one 😂
YUP
Always cool to see the alternate camera shots whenever you catch a homerun. Fenway Chris did a great job capturing it himself despite having just put the larger lens on lol. Great job Zack!
Thanks and yeah, he did the best he could given how I messed him up.
Multiple cameras caught it….so what if the TV cameras did a better job??
@@FenwayChris nah you deserve more for getting the exclusive close up shot
@@kuppajr thanks buddy!! 👊
Little guy hugging you might be the cutest shit I've seen this year.
That was pretty great.
“Cause I gave them to chicks” - Fenway Chris😂😂😂😂
:D
Zack be honest...
Do you do a little clip before every game stating that you're absolutely going to catch a home run? lol
Haha, no but I should! Then I could always "predict" my home runs and be correct.
@@zackhample You crack me up man.
@@Jeff-yz3on Lol right. It would be dark.
Bunch of spam comments here Zack.
Lol was thinking the same thing.
Fenway Chris, "Because I give them to chicks"! 😂😂😂
I was dying after that 😂😂😂😂
i was watching this game at a bar in Toronto and I was OMG, I just saw Zack catch that homerun. Been waiting for this episode.
:D
You really make my day with your videos today. Since I go to MLB games sometimes I want to get some balls and you teach me some ways so I want to thank you for that. Great video today.
Thanks very much!
you setup fenway chris for disaster zack hahaha he was still able to get a great shot tho
Ha, true.
My man! 👊
I saw this on Tv and as soon as this happened I was like oh there he is pointing to his camera and I have been waiting for this vid for a bit lol great catch
Soooo cool and gotta feel great to see the stoke on anybody’s face that runs into you or has you sign a ball Love it man
Yup, for sure.
Saw the catch live and immediately texted my daughter
Glad to finally watch the video. I know your a busy guy. Great Video of my stadium. Thanks
Hey Zack, you are an amazing RUclipsr, keep up the great content. Watching your videos have helped me be a better person and better at snagging balls
Thank you
Wow! That's amazing. :)
From my son Dane: Hi Zach! You are such a good guy. I am the kid with the Bobby Witt jr jersey that you signed. It was fun meeting you and it made my day :)
When Collins hit the home run I saw you and was hoping you would catch it then I flipped out when you did. Nice catch out their 👍
Thanks!!!!
The fact that Zack caught the homer on RUclips game of the week makes this better.
Right?? :D
Your uploads are always amazing! Keep up the great work Zack!
Thanks!
Saw this live on youtube game of the week live stream. Nice Catch!
Thank you!
I bet the water from the fountains feels good on a hot summer day but man are they loud!
Yeah but I don't think it's the cleanest water, ya know?
They should definitely open the gates up earlier
Love how confident you are to catching a home run ball.
awesome video keep it up thanks for posting for us and showing all these great adventures with you sir.congrats sir too
14:33 The Dynamic Duo
In Full Effect
Keep Killing It Fellas!
Dope Edits Mr. Hample
Shout Out Fenway Chris
Thank yoooooou!
Thank you!
Zack I love your videos, I’ve been watching for a while now and I’ve learned a lot from it. Because of you I always try to get into games early and try to get balls.
It was great to meet you after this game. Really appreciate the exposure your videos bring to the game. Thanks and we’ll see you again soon.
If Zack doesn’t make your day when he posts, I don’t know what does
Zack always makes my day.
@@aidanfinkofficial yeah he’s just so wholesome and I love watching his vids
@@bulletzFN7 me too!! 🦅
An upload a day keeps my sadness away 😂😂😂
I'm here for you.
Was waiting for you to post this after seeing you catch the home run live because RUclips was streaming the game for free. The chat pointed it out and I had to go back to confirm it. What a crazy coincidence seeing you catch one live!
Nice! Glad you saw it when it happened.
Hey Zack, you’re really awesome, I went to Kauffman once. If you could give me tips on ball hawking, I’d like that. I’m becoming a ball hawk because of you, can’t wait to see more, thank you for uploading
Thanks! I would suggest watching my videos, read my old blog entries, and check out my book "The Baseball" - TONS of advice there. Sorry but I just don’t have time to retype advice here.
@@zackhample it’s fine! Thank you so much, can I suggest Minute Maid Park where the Astros are? They have a pretty good stadium
Heck yeah Zack glad you got the HR ball, time for a hot streak now haha ! And keep up the great vids man ! 💯
I can't believe it ! A video where Fenway Chris doesn't make fun of what Zack is eating !🤣
more random funny moments with Fenway Chris PLS😂
Congrats!
Thanks!
Great video Zack! I love the girl's reaction; nope, I don't want the ball. Then you snagged the home run. That's awesome!
Heh. :)
This Video was awesome zack i loved it its so awesome that you caught that home run ball! I am a huge fan of your channel you are awesome! Thanks so much for keep making this awesome content!
Thanks, really appreciate that.
@@zackhample Anytime man! thanks so much for seeing this and replying.
Doubters will doubt haters will hate but when Zack puts on the focus cap believers always believe. That ball said "Where is Zack? Oh There he is Hi Zack" EPIC CATCH
Thanks!
Zach I love you and using your techniques I got 2 baseballs tossed up in 10 minutes at Kaufman and one by Greinke.
the king is back
so inspirational
I remember seeing it on TV and being like: yo that's Zack Hample lol
"I give them to chicks." 💀 Fenway Chris killed me with that one. 🤣NICE CATCH Z! 👏💥 Here's to many more! 🥳 🥂🍻
YAY! YOU DID IT! I AM SO PROUD OF YOU ZACK
Thanks, Erynn!
ARCANOID LEGEND!!!!!!!!!!!! As usual, bummed I missed you at Kauffman. Wtf is it with the Blue Jays and football? I am also happy that Kauffman treated you right and got you a homer even though you've been out there a few times this season for Witt Jr's possible first homer.
Thanks but I have to correct you on one thing: Arkanoid with a kay. 👊
@@zackhample What the HECK. I even played this game back in the day and thought it was with a C! This is giving me Mandela Effect vibes. (Arkanoid with a K, Zack with a K.) This will be easy to replace in my memories.
Fenway Chris camera IS bigger then Zack phone camera...
By 7 inches!
Fenway Chris with the most honest thing ever said. "I GIVE THEM TO CHICKS."
Gotta show some love to the laaaaaaadies!!
I've watched a lot of your videos the last few weeks and that is definitely the happiest I've seen you in a good while. Good stuff 👍👍 and keep enjoying it!
Yeah. I wish my happiness wasn't tied to home runs but here we are.
@@zackhample Ack, I doubt that's true! Anyways cheers for the vlogs, really enjoy them 👍👍
When you see it 😂 11:36
Q&A: when did you meet Fenway Chris? How did you meet him?
2017 at Fenway Park they met. Chris used to work at Fenway and have his family a VIP tour and randomly emailed Zack and invited him along. Zack joined him and two years later he became his videographer.
Well said Aidan!
Wonderful prediction Zack!! You showed us that when you want it strongly, you get it!!
Love your baseball vids
I'm glad to hear that.
After I watched the highlights of that game, I just noticed that someone chated the amazing homerun and that looked like Zack Hample because of the camera person, Fenway Chris, and what the person was wearing. So I was looking for that and I couldn't find it and then the next day, you posted that video. LOL
5:02 THAT's new. Never seen a kid hug you like that. As they say "We don't deserve them"
I got hugged at a game in Arizona in like 2016. Maybe 2017. See if you can find it.
@@zackhample oh I don't think I remeber that one. Isn't that the one where you went in the pool?
Zack pumping the videos out, love it man! Keep up the great work
Thanks!
Nice. I had said 5.
This video made me grin from ear to ear.😁
Best video game of all time?
Old school
Atari...
Asteroids.
I'll beat anybody in the world.
Ooh, that's a fun one.
Was at this same exact game! Would've loved to run into Zack just to talk baseball, current and old. Enjoy all your videos guys, keep it up ✅️🤟
Love you zack keep staying positive and thank you for the content that you and only you put out there!
Corn dogs and french toast...2 of the major food groups!😆
I was watching the Royals broadcast when you caught that HR. I wasn't paying attention to who caught it but then the announcers called you by name. I was thinking I'm gonna see that on RUclips later. Very cool
When I was watching the highlights for this game, I saw the homerun and thought to myself "that guy looks like Zack".
You're smart and have good eyes.
How did you predict that?? Unless you say that for every game off camera 🤣 I'm glad you finally got a Home run ball this year! I'll never get one so great job Zack!
This was the first game all season that I predicted a homer. Can't explain it. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Congratulations on your 1st home run of the season. I hope you catch more home run this year.
Thanks!
Hahaha I was watching this game on tv and I saw this happen absolutely amazing catch !!!! So happy for you bro, keep up the great content
THANKS!!
Just wanted to say u make great content and I appreciate what u do for baseball and the mlb
Thank you!
I was watching that game and saw you catch the home run ball. It was being aired on RUclips that day. The announcers even said it was Zack Hample that caught the ball!!
That hug is the best. Baseball makes us better humans
Zack, I watch your videos all the time. I was watching this game on RUclips live, and as a Blue Jays fan I was excited that Collins hit a HR, and I had no idea you caught that HR! Incredible!!
@Zach Hample I am a big fan of your channel! Sometimes I see you on live TV during royals home games! 😎
Saw you at this game and got a pic! Congrats on the HR!
I love the kiss cam moment it was wierd at first but when I saw it again I noticed the background.😂😂
let’s gooo zack i was actually watching this live & couldn’t believe it was you who caught it also great catch btw🎉⚾️
Thanks!
Thank you for these videos Zack. They are always great
Thanks for watching.
Nice catch zack! I’m happy for you. It’s been a while Since you got a home run catch
This was the Wednesday RUclips game, I think you were mentioned. I had it on in the background
I seen your catch live on tv
:)
I was watching this game I had to rewind, I'm like it's that guy from RUclips, Zack!!
Saw this game on RUclips and was like hey there's Zack and then bam you caught it was really cool!
Also was at the Jays game yesterday and caught my first ball ever, foul from Espinal. Finally on the board!
Congrats!
@@zackhample thank you! I may have watched a bunch of the videos at Roger center and in general to prep myself 😁😂
⚾💪🏼 I watched you catch that Zack Collins Homer live on TV when it played. I had to rewind the game to make sure it was you lool.
:D
Missed him again 😭😭😭
Zack let me know when your in KC next!
That’s the energy we need zack
Gotta start calling it more often then! And nice Jays t-shirt!
Thanks!
I saw it live and was not sure if it was you or not thats so cool
I was in my uni lecture when I seen you snag that home run ball!
Haha, love it!
Yeah buddy!!! Nice catch Zack!!
Hope Steve Bartman attends and attempts to catch Zack's last baseball and ruins 99th birthday 😂
Good one Zack!! Your the best!! I can’t wait to see some videos from dodger stadium!!
:)
Saw that catch live on a RUclips stream! Nice catch Zack.
Thanks! Glad you saw it.
Hey Zach I love your videos and just a suggestion the guardians and Yankees games have been very tight and they are coming to progressive field!
I was so happy when I found out you caught that home run and saw the clip (and still am!) You caught a home run without me present, how dare you! Nah, just kidding congrats Zack and I hope you catch lots more. It was your longest drought in terms of the amount of games it took you to catch a home run in a season where you’ve caught at least one since 2009 (52 games). Took you 32 games this year. Hopefully the next one is much sooner.
Wow, well, it felt like an eternity. Thanks for the good vibes as always.
Great
I tweeted @ you when you caught this. Good job dude!
Saw you live on tv catching it lol
Hey bud..i was watching that game out here in Vancouver and i saw that catch and i remember saying...holy shit i know that guy...good catch.
Zack probably records himself predicting he's gonna catch a home run before every game and edits it out unless he actually does catch one 😂 . I'm just playing Zack. I love your videos and look for you to upload everyday.
Haha, I should do that, right?
Hey zack it’s Ali I went to a A’s game vs angels game in may I just wanted to say thank you for being so nice and generous to me and Leo thank you so much
Always enjoy watching your videos Zack can't wait for you to reach 12,000 and also 100 home runs.
