Angels Star Trout To Undergo Knee Surgery

Details and Severity of Injury Still Unknown

Los Angeles Angels star centerfielder Mike Trout will undergo surgery to repair a torn meniscus in his left knee, the team announced Tuesday.

The news was first reported by ESPN's Jeff Passan, who cited sources saying that the extent of the injury is not yet known, but that it is not expected to be season-ending.

Trout, 30, is one of the best players in baseball and has been a key part of the Angels' success in recent years. He is a three-time American League MVP and has been named to the All-Star team eight times.

The Angels are currently in fourth place in the AL West with a record of 27-34. They have been struggling lately, losing seven of their last 10 games.
