Super Junior’s Leeteuk to throw first pitch for Doosan Bears


On October 9th, Super Junior’s Leeteuk will throw the ceremonial first pitch at a playoff between the Doosan Bears and the Lotte Giants as the Doosan Bears’ representative at Jamsil Stadium in southern Seoul.

Prior to his first pitch, Leeteuk tweeted, “I’m throwing the first ball in the semifinal game of the pro baseball season. First of all, I’m sorry that I’m a man. I’ll do my best.”

Usually, female entertainers pitch the first ball at these games, but perhaps fans can forgive Leeteuk as he is set to enter into the Army on October 30. He will enter the 306 military training camp for a five-week of basic military training before serving in the army for 21 months.
