BTS's V Throws First Pitch at Dodgers Game and Excites Fans with On-Field Interactions
V of the popular K-pop group BTS had the honor of throwing the first pitch at a Los Angeles Dodgers game. He met Shohei Ohtani before taking the mound and bowing to Dodgers pitcher Yoshinobu Yamamoto. Fans cheered as V delivered a strike. He then excitedly announced, "It's time for Dodger baseball!" in English and interacted with young fans on the field.
Before the game against Cincinnati, V shared a moment with Ohtani in the dugout and conversed with Dodgers pitcher Tyler Glasnow. Dressed in a No. 7 jersey and jeans, V received a warm welcome from fans as he entered the dugout. He later returned to the field to throw warmup pitches while fans captured the moment on their phones.
BTS is gearing up for a new album release as a full group in the upcoming spring, following a break for mandatory military service in South Korea. The band members have been in the U.S. since July, working on new music and exciting their fans with their upcoming projects.
