Delino DeShields and Elvis Andrus also homered for Texas, which snapped a four-game losing streak. The Mariners had won four in a row. Gallo’s homer in the sixth was measured at about 460 feet. It landed above the hill in center, next to the club building where he hit a ball on the roof in the previous game.
