Trout, 31, exited Monday night's 10-3 loss to the San Diego Padres during an eighth-inning at-bat. After fouling off a pitch from Nick Martinez, he was in visible discomfort and left the game after being checked on by a trainer and manager Phil Nevin.
In his 13th big league season, the Vineland, N.J. native was batting .263 with 18 home runs, 44 runs batted in and an OPS of .862.
Trout was named to his 11th All-Star Game last week.
