This was my 27th MLB stadium of the season, and yes, I caught lots of baseballs. Vladimir Guerrero Jr. was going for his 100th career home run. Bo Bichette got the ultimate revenge. I peeked inside the Rogers Centre hotel. Got to see the roof of the dome opening. Received a funny gift from a friend. Hung out with a bunch of friends including a baseball coach that I hadn't seen for 29 years! It was just a really solid day all around.

Can't wait to watch this episode on way home! I was playing MLB The Show last night. My career player hit his 300th HR. I got to thinking.....it would be cool to see a clip of you catching that home run! They need to put you in the video game for milestone homers.

This stadium is definitely tricky to catch homerun balls. In 2002, Bret Boone of the Mariners launched one in my direction. I was so pumped to catch my first homerun ball. That stupid .200 deck took it away. Poorly designed outfield seating. If anyone hasn't been to this stadium, and is interested in going. Don't sit in the outfield seats.. claustrophobic feeling.

I wish I knew that was when you were coming to town, I would have bought tickets! Also funny how you talk about the space between the fans and the wall, because that's exactly where Aaron Judge's 61st home run ended up... in the Jays Bullpen!

Hi,Zack. From Hayward CA. 7 miles south east of Oakland Coliseum. Just wondering how your able to get to all 30 ballparks in the baseball year? Is it youtube, that affords you the opportunity to do this? If so, what a awesome situation. I did your type of tour in 92, 94, 98. Got to see a bunch of stadiums now gone or just football now. The ballpark I love the best is Wrigley. Old Comiskey was really crazy and very old. Tiger Stadium was the easiest to get BB balls, 27 in 2 games. (Most caught on fly) by the fifth caught ball I had people surrounding me. Love your channel. Keep up the videos.
