Gallegos secured his 20th hold in an extra-inning loss to the Brewers on Wednesday, allowing a hit and a walk while recording two strikeouts over a scoreless eighth inning.
Gallegos worked around a bit of trouble of his own doing, throwing 26 pitches overall and only getting 15 into the strike zone. Nevertheless, he was able to preserve what was a one-run lead at the time and establish a career high-water mark in holds. The right-hander has now rattled off four straight scoreless appearances after giving up three earned runs apiece in back-to-back outings Aug. 4 and 5.
