There have been just five games in July where Michael Conforto hasn’t had a hit.
The right fielder went 2-for-4 with an RBI in the Mets’ 4-0 victory over the Padres on Thursday, securing back-to-back multi-hit performances and his fourth this month.
After returning from a concussion sustained in a collision with Robinson Cano in May, it took Conforto some time to get back into the groove. The right fielder was inconsistent at the plate and struggled to hit with runners in scoring position.
“[Conforto] obviously went through a little bit of a rough patch, he’s coming out of it, he’s swinging the bat much better,” Mets manager Mickey Callaway said after the win.
