Calhoun will once again bat cleanup Sunday against the Giants, MLB.com's Alden Gonzalez reports.
Analysis:
Calhoun has hit leadoff 17 times in 23 games this season, but manager Mike Scioscia recently bumped Erick Aybar up to that role. If the change holds, Calhoun will see more opportunities to drive in runs, but may not score as many without Mike Trout hitting behind him in the lineup. Calhoun has hit safely in three straight games since the switch, collecting four RBI over that span.
