The trio will take the mound the the April 29 game against the Atlanta Braves.
ENHYPEN are getting ready to take ENGENE’s out to the ballgame. The seven-man K-pop boy band announced on Friday morning (April 19) that their fans can catch members Heeseung, Jay and Ni-Ki at T-Mobile Park in Seattle on April 29, where the trio will throw out the first pitch at that day’s game between the Seattle Mariners and Atlanta Braves.
ENGENE’s can buy a special ticket bundle for the game, which will also include a customized ENHYPEN x Mariners t-shirt; main level tickets are $30 and view level are $20, with both available here. The white shirt features the band’s blocky logo in teal over the Mariners name and compass logo. A release about the special appearance noted that member Jay was born and raised in Seattle and is a lifelong Mariners fan.
The promotional pitch will come as the band visits town on the U.S. leg of their Fate Plus world tour for a show at the Tacoma Dome on April 28, which will be Jay’s first-ever hometown gig. The five-date U.S. tour in support of their 2023 mini album, ORANGE BLOOD, will kick off on April 24 with a stop at the Honda Center in Anaheim, CA and also feature shows in Oakland at the Oakland Arena (April 26), Chicago at the Allstate Arena (May 1) and Belmont Park, NY at the UBS Arena (May 3).
Back in February, the group paid homage to one of their boy band progenitors, One Direction, when they covered the British band’s signature hit, “What Makes You Beautiful.”
