Gallo went 1-for-3 with a walk and a solo home run in Tuesday's 9-2 loss to the Diamondbacks.
EDGE Analysis
It's his second long ball in five games since the All-Star break, although Gallo only has one other hit in 18 at-bats during that stretch -- a performance much more like his career contact numbers than his surprising first half. On the season, the 25-year-old slugger boasts a .267/.407/.636 slash line with 22 homers and 49 RBI in 66 games.

Gallo went 1-for-4 with a double, an RBI and a run scored Thursday against the Astros.
EDGE Analysis
Gallo drove in the second run of the contest in the first inning on a double, and Rougned Odor would cap off the frame with a two-run double to right field. Gallo struggled with an oblique injury that caused him to miss 22 games in the first half, but he's still managed to piece together a .275/.414/.640 slash line with 20 homers and 47 RBI over 63 contests. He'll set his sights on staying healthy for the second half of the 2019 campaign.

Gallo went 0-for-4 in Saturday's 7-4 loss to Minnesota.
EDGE Analysis
Gallo returned to the lineup after sitting out Friday. Prior to Friday, he had started nine straight games since being activated off the injured list, so the off day should be considered a normal maintenance day.

Gallo went 2-for-2 with a two-run homer in Sunday's 6-2 loss to the Rays.
EDGE Analysis
Gallo's moonshot off starter Blake Snell was the only damage the Rangers could do against the reigning AL Cy Young winner. The 25-year-old slugger is showing no signs of rust since returning from his oblique injury. He's hitting .368 with three long balls and five RBI over his last six games.

Gallo went 2-for-3 with a walk and two solo home runs in Thursday's 3-1 win over the Tigers.
EDGE Analysis
Gallo provided all the runs the Rangers would need with homers in the second and fourth innings. He took the first one deep into the right field seats while his second was an opposite-field job. It didn't take long for Gallo, who was activated off the injured list Tuesday, to find his groove. He has 19 home runs on the year and is hitting one every 9.4 at-bats.
