Gallardo allowed six hits, a walk, and two runs to go with two strikeouts in a win over the Royals on Wednesday. Gallardo (3-5) finally received run support from the Texas offense. The Rangers had scored just two runs while Gallardo was in the game during a four-start losing streak that matched a career worst. Gallardo took a 5-0 leading into the seventh inning before allowing run-scoring doubles by Kendrys Morales and Salvador Perez. Shawn Tolleson and closer Neftali Feliz then retired the last six Kansas City hitters for the win. Gallardo's next start will be at Boston on Tuesday.
