This guy HATED me! Now we’re cool? SUPER FUN day at PNC Park

What happens when you're the ONLY FAN inside the stadium for batting practice? Pure magic! That's what. And speaking of being at stadiums . . .

This game between the Pittsburgh Pirates and Washington Nationals was especially fun for me because I was given early access to run around the outfield seats and get ALL THE BASEBALLS for the first hour of batting practice. (And because I got to see a lot of Juan Soto.)
During that time, I got to catch up with Pirates bullpen catcher Jordan Comadena who's really nice to me now, but that wasn't always the case. Do you remember this video from three years ago?
• FALSELY ACCUSED of tra...
That's when our "feud" started, but then we made peace later that season in Anaheim (on the day that I snagged my 11,000th ball). Here's THAT video -- the Jordan portion takes place toward the end:
• Catching my 11,000th b...
And so, I can officially say: thanks to Jordan Comadena (@funky24 on Insta) for being so cool. I never thought he and I would be friendly with each other based on how things went a few years ago.
Big thanks to Nationals pitcher Josiah Gray (@jojo_gray21) for hooking me up with a baseball and telling me that he enjoys my videos. If there are any MLB players out there who are reading this, hit me up if you wanna get in a video. I'd love to chat/feature you/promote your social media or anything else you're doing.
This video, BTW, was filmed on April 15, 2022 by "Fenway Chris" (@yonnernyc) and it was edited by Rachel Messbauer. Big thanks to them as well and of course to YOU for watching.

Really awesome to see you and Jordan good friends.
I love PNC Park! One of my favorites and a far cry from Three Rivers Stadium- been to both- and also always fun to see that stadium no matter what! Such a beautiful park and a fun place to catch a game! Glad you had a good day out there getting baseballs, signing autographs and having a blast on a beautiful night for baseball in Pittsburgh!
What a fun batting practice! One of the better ones and once again, thanks again for all you do for baseball and fans, much love Zack!
I’m very impressed in your ability to consistently do things for the right reason. Well done man🤟
So great to meet you and Chris! Glad to see you and Jordan are “good” now. He’s a great dude. I know him personally. He’s one of the best! Hopefully catch you next year!

Zack, I truly love your channel, you’ve got so much energy, I wish I could do what you do, but I can’t walk. Be nice if you can catch a ball for me the next time you’re at Truist Park the Atlanta Braves are my favorite team.

It was great meeting you before the game, you should definitely go to PNC Park way more the videos are way better there.
Thanks for sharing👍🏽
Dude i was at that game and i was telling my friends all about you 😂 thats nuts!
How cool is it to be Zack Hample? Keep up the great content.
ive been binge watching your vids and they are reminding me how much i miss the ballparks. safeco/mariners owe you a commission lol.
I saw you on TV during the game in the outfield haha
I just wish stadiums did this normally, or even sold an extra add on to get in early to see batting practice. I would definitely pay for this!
With our starting pitching in Pittsburgh you should have caught a lot of HR balls!!! keep up the good work.
One thing about Zack is that is penchant for generosity & giving back is indeed his trademark
I saw you at that game. Pirates lost but still fun!!!
People say zack does the weirdest thing in the world, people do weird things and others should respect it. Be you and zack is doing exactly that.
I would love some Camden Yards Zack great video!!
PNC Park In Pittsburgh, PA is an excellent place to watch a game. A must see for Baseball fans.

Jackie Robinson day is one of my favorite days of the year and I like every number was dodger blue, my only critique was that each team wore white or grey uniforms so it didn’t look weird. I get why but I would’ve liked to see the different color combinations
Thats awesome you went to Guilford College. Didn't know that. Greensboro just hr from me
Daniel Vogelbach! The former Brewer is always #1 in our hearts even after he broke up a no-hitter against us the other day. PNC Park is my favorite stadium not home to one of our teams because of the beautiful views and great vibes. -Anthony

I was at the met game yesterday and I caught two balls, one with the giants logo on it and one was from a Mets coach
