Los Angeles Angels star Mike Trout was scratched from the starting lineup Tuesday against the host Kansas City Royals due to a skin infection, according to the team.
No further details were given about the three-time American League MVP, who played Monday and went 1-for-4 with a run. Trout recorded three hits in the last two games after going 1-for-24 in his previous seven contests.
Trout, 34, is batting .231 with 20 home runs and 54 RBIs in 108 games this season, his 15th campaign with the Angels.
He was originally slated to bat third as the designated hitter for Los Angeles. Instead, cleanup batter Jo Adell switched from right field to DH. Chris Taylor drew into the lineup in right field and is batting sixth, among other tweaks to the original order.
