I may be a day or two behind on this one, but uber-douche Zack Hample appeared on Conan O’Brien the other night to discuss his techniques for snagging home runs and foul balls at MLB park.  Conan didn’t seem too impressed, but it’s not hard to figure out why.  Hample is 32 years old and has caught over 4,000 baseballs while at games.  He brings his glove with him (ugh) and claims to know how to ask the players for a ball.  I’m calling bullshit, though.  No one’s that lucky, and no one’s that charismatic.  Geroge Clooney couldn’t get 4,000 balls with a combination of luck and asking nicely, so you think Hample can?  Nah.  My bet is that he’s ripping them away from the clutches of little boys and girls, their faces covered with bitter tears of defeat.  There’s really no other way to explain it…except maybe sexual services for baseballs?  Too bad Piazza is retired.
