Los Angeles Angels star Shohei Ohtani will miss his scheduled start on Thursday against the Oakland Athletics.
He's not injured—he just got stuck in traffic.
Manager Joe Maddon told reporters that Ohtani was on one of the team's buses that got stuck in traffic, so he was forced to take a BART train to Oakland's RingCentral Coliseum. He'll now bat second as the team's designated hitter on Thursday and start on Friday.
