LOS ANGELES (AP) — V of K-pop sensation BTS threw the ceremonial first pitch at a Los Angeles Dodgers game on Monday night after meeting two-way superstar Shohei Ohtani.

After taking the mound, the singer bowed slightly in the direction of Dodgers pitcher Yoshinobu Yamamoto, who then caught a strike from the left-hander. BTS fans screamed throughout V’s time on the field.

The singer, whose given name is Kim Taehyung, and Ohtani briefly hugged in the team’s dugout before the game against Cincinnati.

He rewarded them with a wave.
