Dodgers Video: Willie Calhoun Extends Hitting Streak With 20th Home Run Of Season

Los Angeles Dodgers second base prospect Willie Calhoun continues to slug his way to an impressive season with Triple-A Oklahoma City, hitting his team-leading 20th home run on Monday night.

Calhoun’s two-run shot that hit off the upper deck at Chickasaw Bricktown Ballpark gave Oklahoma City a 3-0 lead over the Memphis Redbirds (St. Louis Cardinals affiliate) in the third inning. The Redbirds mounted a comeback, however, and came away with a 5-3 win.

The home run was Calhoun’s lone hit on the night, though he also drew a walk. Calhoun enters play Tuesday night with a season-best 11-game hitting streak.

The 22-year-old is batting .310/.360/.590 with 23 doubles, five triples, the aforementioned 20 homers, and 61 RBI in 87 games. This season is his first exclusively playing with Oklahoma City.

In addition to home runs, Calhoun leads the affiliate in doubles, triples, RBI and total bases (192); he’s second in total hits (103). Calhoun was among the four Oklahoma City players named to the 2017 Triple-A All-Star Game, and he rose from a preseason ranking of No. 86 to 74 in the Baseball America midseason top 100 prospects.

The Dodgers selected Calhoun in the fourth round of the 2015 Draft. He spent last season with Double-A Tulsa, though joined Oklahoma City for the Pacific Coast League championship.
