ST. LOUIS -- Giants first baseman Brandon Belt underwent season-ending surgery Friday morning in San Francisco to clean up the meniscus and cartilage in his right knee. Belt had played through the discomfort, but the Giants decided to go through with the procedure.
"It was a cleanup and all went well," manager Bruce Bochy said. "He'll just rehab and be ready for Spring Training."
Belt, who hadn't played since Sept. 14 against Colorado, finished the season batting .253 with 14 home runs and 46 RBIs in 112 games.
