Doubles in win Gallo went 1-for-4 with a double and a run scored in Thursday's 4-1 win over Boston.
Impact The pull-hitting Gallo blooped a ball down the left field line and hustled into second base with a double, his first of the season and just his third extra-base hit. It was just the 23rd two-bagger for the Rangers, ranking them tied for 28th in the league.

Singles twice Sunday Gallo went 2-for-4 with a run scored in Sunday's 8-4 loss to the White Sox.
Impact Gallo had two singles in the loss to extend his on-base streak to 21 consecutive games. He also extended another streak -- 19 games without an extra-base hit. Gallo, who has two 40-home run seasons on his resume, has just one over 21 games. Statcast reveals he's not barreling balls as often as in the past, but it hasn't led to chasing pitches. Gallo stays within the zone but continues to have a swing-and-miss component, not unusual for the slugger. The Rangers feel if he continues to be disciplined, the power will come, Evan Grant of the Dallas Morning News reports. "If he cleans up the swing-and-miss and maintains the quality of swinging at strikes, he's going to be elite," manager Chris Woodward said.

Bunts in run Gallo went 1-for-3 with a walk and an RBI in Tuesday's 6-2 loss to the Angels.
Impact Gallo delivered a run using an unlikely method -- a bunt single. Facing a pronounced shift, something Gallo dislikes, the slugger pushed a bunt down the line where the third baseman would normally play. That plated Isiah Kiner-Falefa, who had tripled earlier in the inning, and made it a 3-2 game. The RBI was just Gallo's sixth of the season and second in the last 15 games. Opponents have been careful when pitching to Gallo when he can do damage. In 29 plate appearances with men on base, Gallo has walked 12 times (once intentionally) and been hit by pitches twice.

He'll receive the day off Sunday with southpaw John Means starting for Baltimore. Adolis Garcia will take over in right field Sunday for the Rangers.
