Joey Gallo suffers non-displaced nasal fracture in Rangers' loss
Texas Rangers infielder/outfielder Joey Gallo suffered a non-displaced nasal fracture during an eighth-inning collision with teammate Matt Bush on Sunday against the Chicago White Sox.
What It Means:
Gallo was also hit in the head, so he'll have to pass through concussion protocol before being cleared for game action, meaning the 23-year-old is likely to miss a contest or two. A disabled list stint remains a possibility, but more will be known following a re-examination on Monday. Phil Gosselin replaced Gallo at third base on Sunday.
Gallo is batting just .205 (71-for-346) this season, but he makes up for it with a .561 slugging percentage while turning in 35 home runs, 65 RBI, and 68 runs scored over 113 games this season.
