Los Angeles Angels superstar Mike Trout needs surgery to repair a torn meniscus in his left knee, general manager Perry Minasian revealed Friday.
While the procedure is not expected to end his season, there's no immediate timetable for his return. It's believed he'll undergo the procedure on Friday, sources told ESPN's Alden González and Jeff Passan.
Trout appeared fine during Monday's game against the Philadelphia Phillies when he stole a base and scored a run while playing all nine innings in center field. However, he finished the game with knee soreness that started in the third inning. An MRI taken Tuesday revealed the tear.
