BTS V
BTS member V, alias Kim Taehyung, is scheduled to deliver the ceremonial first pitch at a Dodgers game later this month. Since the Los Angeles Dodgers' announcement, the internet has been on fire. V's first ceremonial pitch comes as BTS prepares to release a new album and embark on a globe tour next year. V, along with his bandmates Jimin, RM, Jin, Suga, Jungkook, and J-Hope, are now in the United States working on the development of their new album.
V announces his first ceremonial pitch at MLB
Despite their busy schedules, V's offer to throw the ceremonial first pitch at a Major League Baseball (MLB) game has sent ARMYs into a frenzy. On August 17, it was confirmed that the MLB game between the Los Angeles Dodgers and the Cincinnati Reds will take place on August 25 at Dodger Stadium in Los Angeles.
Soon after the announcement, MLB also began selling tickets online. Given that the announcement came as a great surprise to fans, there were reports that the server collapsed on both the ticket and MLB websites. "That's the power of the Kim Taehyung," one person said on X. "Yes! We'll be tailgating and going to our first LA Dodgers game!" another person added. One enthusiastic admirer said, "Excited doesn't even begin to cover it!! Taehyung is about to rock the stadium!" A second admirer wrote, "On the 25th, we'll be thrilled to see V deliver the honorary pitch!!!
Netizens reaction to V's announcement
Netizens can only visualize V in the game jersey. And, given his newfound chiseled boy image following his military discharge in June of this year, fans can't wait to see him show off his best form. A fan wrote, "MLB website is now also crashed after V's announcement!" Another one added, "Kim Taehyung will throw out the ceremonial first pitch at Dodger Stadium on August 25th! The ticket website is currently down after the official announcement." While one of them wrote, "I wonder if he was giving us a clue even then. This amazing man is gonna be throwing the first pitch for my awesome Dodgers team. Dodgers fam is so lucky."
While idols have previously thrown pitches at baseball games, Taehyung's first performance abroad makes it a unique experience.
