The ENHYPEN boys have stepped up to the plate.

The Seattle Mariners welcomed the band’s Heeseung, Jay and Ni-ki on Monday (April 29) to throw the ceremonial first pitch at T-Mobile Park. The trio also hung out during the team’s batting practice, taking in the sights, playing catch and meet former Mariners player, Ichiro Suzuki.

In a special moment, lifelong Mariners fan and Seattle native Jay was surprised by a special video message on the scoreboard from former Mariners player, Jay Buhner, whom he was named after.

The promotional pitch comes following the band visiting town on the U.S. leg of their Fate Plus world tour for a show at the Tacoma Dome over the weekend, marking Jay’s first-ever hometown gig. The five-date U.S. tour in support of their 2023 mini album, ORANGE BLOOD, kicked 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.”
