Mets catching prospect Kevin Parada has had a bit of a rough season.
The former first-round pick is hitting just .212 with a .286 on-base percentage through 46 games.
Of late, though, he seems to be finding a groove — Parada lifted a solo homer for the second straight game on Friday night, helping Binghamton beat the Richmond Flying Squirrels 6-5.
He also picked up a single earlier in the game and drove in the go-ahead run in the 10th.
Parada is now hitting .309 with seven home runs and 16 RBI over his last 21 games.
Ryan Clifford also enjoyed himself a nice day at the plate — reaching twice with a single, double and driving in a run with a fielder’s choice.
After going hitless over the first three games of the month, the 21-year-old slugger is now riding a seven-game hitting streak.
He has four homers, a .408 on-base percentage, and a 1.066 OPS in June.
