The Los Angeles Dodgers have a seven-game roadtrip against the Colorado Rockies and San Diego Padres this week. Then on Monday, August 25, the Boys in Blue return home to take on the Cincinnati Reds.
Ahead of the first game of the series, megastar V from the K-Pop group BTS is set to throw out the ceremonial first pitch.

BTS boasts over 77 million followers on Instagram, as the prolific group of seven has been towards the top of the charts since their debut in 2013. BTS owns the most No. 1 hits on the Billboard Hot 100 charts with six. They lead Drake, Ariana Grande, Taylor Swift, Justin Bieber, and Nicki Minaj.
As for the game itself, the Reds are sitting at 65-60 and just 1.5 games back from the final Wild Card spot in the National League.
The Dodgers, coming off of a sweep of the Padres, are back in sole possession of first place in the NL West. With every game seemingly more important than the last at this point in the season, perhaps the added excitement and energy surrounding the pregame festivities will lead into a win after quite some time away from home.
