Kim Tae-hyung, also known as BTS's V will appear as the first pitcher (ceremonial first pitch) at the Major League Baseball (MLB) game held by the LA Dodgers.
The announcement was made directly by the LA Dodgers via their official social media accounts on August 18, 2025 (local time) with the message, “ARMY, are you ready?” which immediately sparked enthusiasm among fans worldwide.
V is scheduled to throw out the first pitch at the game at Dodger Stadium on Monday August 25, 2025. Two days later, on August 27, 2025, South Korean football star Son Heung Min will also pitch in another game. V's involvement in this event was highlighted because it marked his first time pitching in an MLB event.
Furthermore, this event brought together V's passion for sports, particularly baseball, with the global sporting stage, creating a highly anticipated collaboration. Many fans are also curious about whether V will meet the LA Dodgers player from South Korea, Kim Ha Seong, who is currently in the spotlight in the league.
Fan enthusiasm exploded immediately after the announcement. The collaboration between BTS, known as "21st-century pop icons," and this prestigious sporting event was predicted to produce an energizing, historic moment.
Meanwhile, BTS is also preparing for a major comeback in the spring of 2026, which will be followed by a large-scale world tour. Since last July 2025, the BTS members have been gathering in the United States to work on music projects and prepare for their tour.
