Joey Gallo had been scuffling offensively in a 4-for-43 skid.
But Gallo broke out in a big way with the second four-hit game of his career to give the Minnesota Twins a major boost.
After three lackluster losses to the Detroit Tigers and a 13-2 defeat to the Phillies on Friday, the Twins very much needed Gallo's offensive explosion. Matt Wallner hit a home run, single and knocked in two runs, and Carlos Correa added a solo homer. Max Kepler had two hits and an RBI."Things went well for me today and the whole team," Gallo said in a postgame interview on Bally Sports North. "Just from the get-go, we were making them throw strikes, taking our walks.
Trea Turner led the way with three hits and Nick Castellanos had two hits to extend his hitting streak to 13 games in a row. Bryce Harper returned to the lineup and hit a double after missing the previous game with back spasms.
