Reyes played all 144 games this season, batting .352 with 15 homers, 202 hits, and 111 RBIs. He led Lotte's batters with his clear contact ability and solver instinct, although his slugging power is a little low. 202 hits were a new record, breaking the 201-hit record set by Seo Geon-chang (then Kiwoom) in 2014.
