Texas Rangers Sunday lineup: Joey Gallo sits

The Texas Rangers look to split their series against the Boston Red Sox this afternoon, and with lefthander Chris Sale going for the BoSox, Jeff Banister is rolling with a righty-heavy lineup that has Joey Gallo on the bench.

Gallo had two long home runs yesterday, but he is appeared in every game so far this season, and with lefthander Chris Sale going for the BoSox, Banister appears to view this as a good opportunity to get him a rest day. Gallo is 1 for 9 with 6 Ks in his career against Sale.

The lineup:

DeShields — CF

Choo — DH

Kiner-Falefa — 2B

Mazara -- RF

Profar — SS

Nunez — 3B

Rua -- LF

Guzman — 1B

Perez — C

Doug Fister starts for Texas.
