Joey Gallo’s home run against Pittsburgh today was the 100th of his career

Joey Gallo’s 100th career home run, all for the Texas Rangers, was a tremendous shot to right-center field, going completely out of the park and splashing down in the Alleghany River. That home run gave the Rangers a 2-0 lead against the Pirates, and went 443 feet, per Statcast, with a 109.8 exit velocity.

Gallo hit that home run in his 377th career, game, making him the third fastest player in major league history to 100 home runs, behind only Ryan Howard (325 games) and Ralph Kiner (376 games).
