His offensive production was similar to the USA's third baseman, top prospect Pedro Alvarez.

Lin had a couple defensive gaffes in a loss to the South Korean national baseball team.

The two plays, coupled with a Che-Hsuan Lin miscue, contributed to two Korean runs and the win.

That was the second-largest bonus in CPBL history, behind Chung-Nan Tsai and even with Chang-Wei Tu, Chih-Yuan Chen and Yi-Cheng Tseng.

He reached 100 hits in 249 AB and 62 games, the fastest player to that mark in CPBL history to that point.

On August 13, he set new CPBL rookie records for RBI (77, surpassing Tai-Shan Chang) and hits (119, breaking the mark held by Chih-Wei Shih).

On January 19, 2023, Lin signed with the Uni-President Lions of the Chinese Professional Baseball League.
