Some athletes were ready to risk it all last weekend. A Korean actress left quite the impression on Los Angeles Dodgers baseball players after throwing her first pitch at an exhibition game in South Korea.
The American baseball team played an exhibition game in the South Korean capital city on Sunday night (March 17), where the Dodgers went head-to-head against the Kiwoom Heroes at the Gocheok Sky Dome, a baseball stadium located in Gocheok-dong, Seoul.
To kickstart the game, Korean actress Jeon Jong-seo was invited to throw the first pitch, as per Unilad. The 29-year-old was seen wearing a Dodgers shirt, leggings, and knee-high socks.
Now-viral footage of Jeon’s pitch showed just how stunned the team appeared, with players Chris Taylor and Tyler Glasnow looking very smitten.

The team manager, Dave Roberts, reportedly said of the team’s upcoming games in Seoul: “I’m really looking forward to it, learning more about the culture, the city.
“Obviously there’s a lot of good ball players there, and so for us and the Padres to go over there and showcase and play two regular-season games, it’s good for baseball. I’m excited.”
"They all threw their hearts at her," a reader commented
