His winning campaign featured a .358 batting average and a .450 on-base percentage this year. In 72 games he piled up 100 hits, 21 doubles, no triples, 24 home runs, 88 RBIs and 70 runs scored. He received 11 first place votes out of a possible 14. Cliff Pennington of the Williamsport Crosscutters finished second in voting, while Martin Maldonado of the Hudson Valley Renegades finished third.
