Following the news of Baekhyun singing the national anthem and aespa and (G)I-DLE performing on the celebration stage, fans were in for a treat when it was revealed that Seungmin of Stray Kids will be throwing the first pitch for the very first time since his debut.
On March 18, Seungmin threw the first pitch for the MLB World Tour Seoul Series 2024 special match at Gocheok Sky Dome in Guro-gu, Seoul.
The Hold On singer got picked as the starting pitcher for a special match between Team Korea and the LA Dodgers. With the MLB regular season opener approaching, baseball fans are eagerly anticipating the game.
Seungmin’s upcoming first pitch marks a significant moment since his debut. Last year, he went to Sajik Stadium in Busan to throw the first pitch at the Lotte vs. Samsung game but was unable to when the game got canceled due to rain.
MLB posted a video of his first pitch on their social media accounts, and it was a perfect strike.
Unfortunately, Team Korea faced a defeat in the MLB opener as the LA Dodgers surged ahead to win 5-2 against Korea.
