The Thunderbirds left fielder played in 147 games, ending the season with 36 doubles, 12 triples, 26 home runs, 124 runs and 110 runs batted in.
"When you work hard, good things happen," Morf explained to reporters after winning the coveted award. "Slumps happen to everyone, but you won't break out of one without hard work. I think that's one of the prime reasons for my success this season."
