Well THAT was easy! I got my 12,000th baseball autographed at Truist Park
Спорт
It took me SIX YEARS to get Joc Pederson to sign my 9,000th baseball, but it only took ONE DAY for me to track down Colorado Rockies pitcher José Ureña. And guess what? It'll only take you ONE CLICK to save money on tickets . . .

As for Ureña, he had tossed this milestone ball to me the night before, so of course I brought it with me to this game. I was so determined to get it signed that I sacrificed the final portion of batting practice in the outfield in order to camp out in foul territory and try to get his attention when he came off the field.
Batting practice, as it turned out, was a disaster for me. I got ZERO baseballs but thankfully found a way to get on the board later on, and then during the game, I sat in the exclusive Chophouse section in right field. Huge thanks to my friends Jess and Ben for hooking up the tickets there. Wanna see the two "Watch With Zack" videos that I've done with Ben? Here you go:
• Helping a 12-year-old ...
• These women got SOOOOO...
You know who else deserves a shoutout? Starting pitcher Spencer Strider who set an Atlanta Braves record for most strikeouts in one game.

As a braves fan, Jose Urena is our greatest enemy, but seeing Zack Hample get his 12,000th ball doesn't make me unhappy. Congrats Zack! I love your channel!
That's awesome!!! Congratulations Zack!!!

I find it extremely irritating that MLB players don’t automatically sign the sweet spot. In my past experiences, they only sign the sweet spot if you ask them. These guys have been around baseball for their whole lives. How do they not know standard ball signing customs?
@Vivagallardo

@@generallukeproductions 99% of the time if a player is presented a ball with no other signatures that means the fan wants only that player to sign the ball, which would indicate he should sign the sweetspot. however there are a handful of players, like Joc, who won't do it even if asked. some are "contractually obligated" and others are just being dicks
Hey Zack a few weeks ago my friend took me to a Cardinals game we played the Braves. I got to see a walk of walk 😂 and it was my first ever game! I also got my first ball it was hit by Acuna or Wilson Contrares ( ik that bc the both wear a lot of yellow lol) it was in BP and it went to the wall and then Spencer Strider threw it up

I like how you shook your head while Charlie Blackmon was taking BP, like “why won’t he hit one out here?” - us Rockies fans have been wondering the same basic thing for a couple weeks now. Bud Black keeps insisting on putting him in the cleanup spot the past month, and Chuck is not a cleanup hitter, and hasn’t looked comfortable since. He was an elite lead off guy most of his career.

If Jim Kaat or Lou Whitaker or Ichiro etc do an autograph signing this off season you should definitely get some of the other balls in your collection signed. Commemorative or home run balls deserve autographs. Go catch one of the few remaining home runs Albert Pujols has left in him.
When it comes to your ball hawking career. Have you discovered any advantages to gett balls in day games over night games?? Or perhaps vice versa?
Nice
You should definitely do a showcase video with every thousandth baseball you’ve gotten signed
