Phillies catcher Lieberthal has knee surgery

Oct 20, 2005

PHILADELPHIA (AP) - Philadelphia Phillies catcher Mike Lieberthal had surgery on his right knee, but is expected to be ready when spring training starts in February.

The 12-year veteran had arthroscopic surgery in Los Angeles to remove debris in his knee, assistant general manager Ruben Amaro Jr. said Thursday.

Lieberthal, who hit .263 with 12 home runs and 47 RBIs last season, began rehabilitation immediately the surgery Wednesday.
