It’s safe to say that “baseball collector” Zack Hample has been the main beneficiary of Alex Rodriguez’s 3,000th hit. He’s caught the ball, refused to give it A-Rod and has been doing a bunch of media spots since.
Hample’s glory culminated today, when he was a guest on Sirius XM Fantasy Sports Radio with Lisa Ann:

If you hate Hample’s schtick as a baseball hunter but love Lisa, you may hate what comes next: brunch!

But it doesn’t end there. The two then took to the streets to give the famous baseball a tour around New York:

Lisa’s take on her day with Zack and Arod’s ball:
Well I think Zack and I did a really good job showing the ball #NYC today.. It was really fun, yeah we are silly, but I respect anyone who has a hobby they love and that they are able to turn it into a successful career. This is the Man who wrote “Watching Baseball Smarter” ⚾️ The book that inspired a new love interest in baseball myself. Amazing how life works!
