Los Angeles Dodgers outfield prospect Kendall George announced on Friday that he was undergoing surgery on his left knee after the injury he suffered while avoiding a bat dog earlier this season. After scoring a run, George jumped to avoid a bat dog that was retrieving a bat near home plate and injured his knee. The incident involved a meniscus issue and prompted Tulsa to suspend its bat dog program. However, the knee problem resurfaced, with George scratched from Tulsa's lineup last Saturday because of soreness before being placed on the minor league injured list. He stole 100 bases with High-A Great Lakes last year and entered 2026 ranked as the Dodgers' No.
