Launches homer Calhoun went 2-for-4 with a solo home run in Saturday's loss against the White Sox.

Impact Calhoun missed the first weeks of the regular season due to a groin injury but has gotten off to a strong start, hitting safely in five of his first six games and posting two multi-hit outings in that stretch.

Moves to leadoff Calhoun batted leadoff and went 1-for-4 with a walk and a run scored in Friday's 9-7 loss to the White Sox.

Impact Texas manager Chris Woodward had Calhoun make his first appearance as a leadoff hitter, partially to take pressure off Isiah Kiner-Falefa, who was in an 10-for-58 (.172) skid, per Evan Grant of the Dallas Morning News. Also, by dropping the righty-hitting Kiner-Falefa to second, the lineup tweak provided better balance against a right-hander rather than stack three straight lefty hitters. It's uncertain if the manager will continue to have Calhoun leading off.
