Some days, the ball looks like a beach ball to the man standing in the batter’s box. Saturday was one of those days for Red Sox No. 3 prospect Jarren Duran.

The outfielder absolutely clobbered two balls over 475 feet and well over the Worcester Wall at Polar Park in a dominant, 5-for-5 performance out of the leadoff spot. Duran added a double, two singles, drove in three runs and scored three to round out his final line.

His two homers, three extra-base hits and five hits all tied career high marks. His career day at the dish powered the WooSox to a 7-4 victory over Buffalo.

Duran’s first career multi-homer game came earlier this month in Worcester’s 8-5 win over Syracuse on May 11. Saturday’s performance was Duran’s second career game with three extra-base hits, his first since July 17, 2018, and he became the first WooSox player to record five hits in a game.

Duran started Worcester’s day off with a bang out of his customary spot atop the WooSox line up. He ripped Buffalo starter and Blue Jays No. 30 prospect Nick Allgeyer’s second pitch of the day to the right-field wall for a stand-up double. The speedy lefty advanced to third on a wild pitch and scored easily on a sacrifice fly to the warning track from second basemen Christian Arroyo to tie the game at 1.

Jeter Downs, Boston’s No. 2 prospect, launched his third dinger of the year as the next batter, a solo shot that put Worcester up 2-1.

Duran smoked another offering from Allgeyer in his second at-bat for an RBI single that looked identical to his earlier double. A nice play from Buffalo right fielder Logan Warmoth kept Duran at first, but catcher Chris Herrmann would come around to score from first on the base knock that put the WooSox up 4-1.

The sweet swinging outfielder’s third at-bat against Allgeyer resulted in his sixth homer of the season. Duran crushed a 1-0 pitch 480 feet over the 22-foot-high wall to the seats in the furthest row back. The solo shot pushed Worcester’s lead up to 6-1 in the fourth.

While Duran’s first homer bounced back into the stands, his second mammoth blast of the day left Polar Park and bounced onto Summit Street. His seventh dinger of the season went 475 feet, and came in the sixth on a 2-1 count off reliever Dany Jiménez, another solo shot that put Worcester up 7-2.

Duran came into Saturday’s contest having gone 4-for-20 over his last seven games, with one home run and just three RBIs over his week-long cold spell. Due to the lean stretch, his slash line dipped to .242/.347/.532, marks he had not touched since the first week of the season.

A 12-total-base day at the plate is bound to be a boost to the line, no matter what point in the season it comes at. The 2018 seventh-rounder exited the day with a slash line of .299/.390/.672 and an OPS of 1.061.

Duran figures to play a role in Boston’s plans for later this season, with current outfielders Hunter Renfroe and Franchy Cordero sporting OPS+ numbers of 72 and 26, respectively. With a need to fill, it may just be a matter of time before Duran is roaming the outfield at Fenway.
