Shohei Ohtani didn't have to travel far for his return to Anaheim as a member of the Dodgers (well, depending on traffic). And despite the two-way star signing across town with the Dodgers, the Angels did give Ohtani a warm greeting in Tuesday night's game.

The scoreboard operator also had some fun with the homecoming.

As Ohtani came to the plate in the fifth inning -- which followed the first-inning standing ovation and triple in the third -- the Angel Stadium scoreboard displayed a bio section that succinctly described Ohtani's relationship with the Angels.

The graphic simply read, "Used to work here."

Hey, that's not wrong!

We're glad someone captured a photo of the scoreboard because it was excellent work.

MLB fans thought it was hilarious as well.
