V of K-pop sensation BTS has thrown the ceremonial first pitch at a Los Angeles Dodgers game. He met with two-way superstar Shohei Ohtani before taking the mound on Monday night.

A BTS member had their first pitch at a recent Los Angeles Dodgers game, where pitcher Shohei Ohtani was able to meet them.

When news of V’s first pitch was announced by the Dodgers, fans crashed the team’s website for tickets. StubHub even reported on Aug. 18 that ticket sales jumped five times overnight on their website after the announcement, “making the Dodgers the #1 most searched MLB team this week.”
