Lotte Giants foreign hitter Reyes' bat is very hot. Reyes is 21 for 39 with a batting average of 538 in 10 games he played in June. Reyes, who hit as many as nine hits in three consecutive games against the Kiwoom Heroes on the 3rd and 5th, has achieved 'multi hits' in eight of the last 10 games.
It is the best pace since the opening of the season. Reyes, who was sluggish for a while with a batting average of around 10% in the early days of the season, started his bat in earnest in April. The monthly batting average for April was 361. Reyes, who had 35 hits in a month, added 35 hits while maintaining a batting average of .300 with a monthly batting average of .31 in May. This pace is steeper in June. It's not even half of the month yet, but I've already added 21. He also raised his batting average for the season from 313 percent at the start of June to 346 percent.

Reyes hit 202 hits in all 144 games last year, breaking the KBO league record for the most hits in a season. Seo Geon-chang hit one more in 201 hits, which was the KBO's first 200 hits achieved in 2014, and the previous record.

Reyes' presence as a new record holder and hit maker is surprising. Lotte is currently in deep trouble due to the line injuries of key hitters such as Na Seung-yeop and Yoon Dong-hee. However, due to Reyes' presence, he is accumulating the power to hold on to the top again. He is a foreign player who is a good son among good sons.
