K-pop superstars BTS help soundtrack MLB Opening Day

3:40 PM UTC

It's the biggest week on the calendar for a baseball fan: Opening Day. The first game of the 2026 regular season between the Yankees and Giants begins on Wednesday night (8 ET, Netflix) before a full slate of games starts on Thursday. To commemorate such an occasion, K-pop superstars BTS -- one of the most popular artists on the planet with their new album "Arirang" released last week -- have teamed up with MLB.

On Tuesday, BTS' new single "FYA" was included in a new hype video from @MLB on Instagram and Twitter:

A second video will drop on Wednesday ahead of the Yankees-Giants season-opening contest with a third video dropping next week.

It's not the first time that BTS has crossed over in baseball. Last year, band member V threw out the first pitch at Dodger Stadium and got to meet Ohtani in the dugout.
