Joey Gallo Belts 33rd Homer

New York Yankees outfielder Joey Gallo went 2-for-4 with a solo home run in a 6-5 win over the Twins Monday. Gallo was just 3-for-30 in September coming into the game, so his two-hit effort was a much-needed one. The slugger crushed his home run at 110.2 MPH, as he continues to hit the ball […]
