Gallen (14-5) allowed a run on seven hits and a walk while striking out 11 over six innings to earn the win in Tuesday's 6-3 victory over the Rangers.
Gallen limited the damage to a Mitch Garver solo home run in the sixth inning. While he's been good virtually all year, Gallen has been especially sharp by allowing just two runs and generating a 22:3 K:BB across the 18.1 innings covering his last three starts. The right-hander is at a 3.11 ERA, 1.06 WHIP and 179:34 K:BB through 168 innings over 27 starts this season. He's projected for a road outing versus the Dodgers next week.
