Will Lotte Giants Reyes surpass Seo Geon-chang's milestone in 2014 (then Nexen).

Lotte will play the Doosan Bears in Busan on the 26th. Including that day's game, there are now four games left in the regular season. The home game against the NC Dinos-KIA Tigers and the NC away game remain.

Reyes is on the verge of setting a new KBO league record of 200 hits and the most hits. On the 25th, he added two hits against KIA in Gwangju to increase the number of hits in the season to 196. He has four hits to 200 and five hits to Seo Geon-chang's 201 most hits in 2014.

Reyes, a new foreign hitter who joined Lotte this year, had multiple hits from the first game, signaling a fiery season. Reyes has already reached the rank of club legend on the 24th, changing Lotte's record of most hits (193 hits, 2017 Son Ah-seop) in a single season.

Lotte and LG held at Sajik Baseball Stadium in Busan on the 19th. Reyes hit an RBI double in the fifth inning with two outs and runners on first base. Busan = Song Jeong-heon Reporter's songs@sportschosun.com/2024.09.19/

This year, he recorded 38 multi-hitters, 16 three-hit games, and 5 four-hit games, and was literally reborn as a 'hit machine'. It is a terror to pitchers of nine teams.

He is also a lucky star who is playing in a full-length game without missing a single game this season. Will Reyes' all-time performance lead to 200 hits in the season and a new record for the most hits.
