Gallen struck out 12 over 6 1/3 innings and stretched his scoreless streak to 28 innings, leading the Diamondbacks over the Kansas City Royals 2-0.
"It's always nice knowing Zac is stepping on the mound for us," Lovullo said. "He sets an unbelieveable tone for us, goes 6 1/3, no runs, allows us to get ahead and stay ahead."Gallen gave up four hits and walked none. He struck out six straight batters in the fourth and fifth innings, one shy of the franchise record accomplished by Randy Johnson and Curt Schilling, both in 2001.
"Would you believe me if I said I didn't feel great?" Gallen said. "You know the cliché saying — you have your best stuff maybe five times , so the other 20 times, you've got to make it up." Miguel Castro handled the eighth and Andrew Chafin threw the ninth for his fourth save in five chances. The first two Royals batters reached base on Chafin, but the lefty retired the next three, including Freddy Fermin on a strikeout to end the game.Royals manager Matt Quatraro said Gallen's ability to throw four pitches for strikes in any count makes him a tough matchup. Pasquantino said Gallen "does what a lot of people try to do and he does it really well.
