Marco Scutaro has undergone back surgery that could end his career.
San Francisco Giants general manager Brian Sabean announced during a conference call Monday that Scutaro had the fusion procedure performed by Dr. Michael Wang in Miami on Friday.
It will be four-to-six months before doctors determine whether Scutaro can play baseball again.
The 39-year-old played in only five games last season because of recurring back problems.
