Rangers slugger Joey Gallo still isn't sure he had coronavirus

ARLINGTON, Texas -- Texas Rangers outfielder Joey Gallo says he doesn't know if he actually had the coronavirus despite two positive tests, since he never had any symptoms and also had multiple negative tests.

"I wish I had an answer," he said Saturday, a day after his first workout. "I don't know. I really don't know."

Gallo said he planned to have a more extensive antibody test to be sure after a finger-prick test didn't indicate that he had COVID-19.

The All-Star slugger missed the first week of the Rangers summer camp after two positive tests that sandwiched a negative result during intake testing.
