It seems like Los Angeles Angels star Mike Trout avoided a serious injury despite leaving Wednesday's 9-3 loss to the Seattle Mariners early with a knee injury. Trout told reporters after the game he was already feeling better after undergoing tests and plans on playing in Thursday's contest.

Angels manager Ron Washington decided to pull 11-time All-Star and three-time MVP Mike Trout as the game progressed, a surprising development considering the Angels outfielder has started all 29 games this season including Wednesday's contest. Rumors swirled as no reason was given for Trout's exit from the game initially.
