Gallo also drew a two-out walk in the top of the ninth to load the bases as the Yankees were trying to rally against Jordan Romano.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHe had a really good swing to start things off and a good [at-bat] there that set the stage off Romano, who\u2019s tough on lefties,\u2019\u2019 manager Aaron Boone said. \u201cHe gave us a chance. I like that he was aggressive on 3-0 [against Romano]. It was good to have him back in the mix.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Boone said Gallo could have played Tuesday, given how he did in strength-and-conditioning tests, but the Yankees opted to give him an extra day.<\/p>\n<p>The Yankees also could have taken advantage of the day off Thursday to give Gallo extra time. Gallo, however, was looking to build on the bit of success he had prior to leaving the game in Kansas City on Saturday, when he initially suffered the injury after breaking towards second on a stolen base attempt that was wiped out by a foul ball.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/05\/yankeesgallo.jpg?w=1024\" alt=\"Joey Gallo\" class=\"wp-image-22147141\" srcset=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/05\/yankeesgallo.jpg?quality=75&amp;strip=all&amp;w=2048 2048w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/05\/yankeesgallo.jpg?quality=75&amp;strip=all&amp;w=1536 1536w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/05\/yankeesgallo.jpg?quality=75&amp;strip=all 1024w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/05\/yankeesgallo.jpg?quality=75&amp;strip=all&amp;w=512 512w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\"\/><figcaption>Joey Gallo<\/figcaption><figcaption><span class=\"credit\">Getty Images<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Gallo singled twice in that game before the injury and entered Wednesday having gone 6-for-20 with a double and his first two homers and three RBIs of the season in his previous seven games to boost his OPS from .356 to .570.<\/p>\n<p>The homer Wednesday was Gallo\u2019s third of the season \u2014 all of them in his last six games.<\/p>\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n<p>The Yankees\u2019 bullpen threw four more shutout innings to extend its scoreless streak to 21 innings.<\/p>\n<p>Michael King, who has been arguably the top reliever in the game, delivered three more masterful innings and Clay Holmes tossed a scoreless eighth to give the Yankees a chance in the ninth.<\/p>\n<aside class=\"single__inline-module alignright\">\n    <\/aside>\n<p>Overall, it has been another good start for the pen.<\/p>\n<p>They brought in new arms such as Miguel Castro and have gotten continued success from pitchers they discovered last season, Holmes, Lucas Luetge and Wandy Peralta, as well as old standbys King, Aroldis Chapman, Chad Green and Jonathan Loaisiga.<\/p>\n<p>Boone credited the front office, scouts and analytic department for bringing in the right pitchers and the coaching staff for \u201cmaximizing their potential.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cFor the most part, the biggest thing is the players themselves,\u2019\u2019 Boone said. \u201cThey\u2019ve been pliable and been able to buy into things.\u201d<\/p>\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n<p>Aaron Judge isn\u2019t the only slugger on a hot stretch.<\/p>\n<p>Giancarlo Stanton extended his hitting streak to nine games with a single.
