Texas Rangers slugger Joey Gallo earned a place in baseball's history books with a major-league first on Wednesday.
Gallo hit a two-run shot into the Allegheny River in the third inning of the Rangers' 9-6 win over the Pittsburgh Pirates, becoming the first player in major league history to hit 100 home runs before reaching 100 singles (he has 93).
The blast, estimated at 443 feet, was Gallo's 100th career home run in his 377th game, making him the fastest player to 100 homers in American League history.
