Gallen (9-5) earned the win over Washington on Wednesday, allowing one run on six hits and one walk while striking out six batters over six innings.
Advice: Gallen gave up a run in the fourth inning but otherwise silenced the Nationals for his second straight quality start and third straight victory. Since giving up a season-high seven runs (six earned) over 3.2 frames against Toronto on July 14, Gallen has surrendered just four runs over his subsequent 17 innings. Despite that solid span, the right-hander's control had been shaky coming into Wednesday, as he had issued nine free passes across his previous two outings. However, he may have settled those concerns against Washington by issuing just one walk in the win.
