Zac Orchard is the 2017 IBL Rookie of the Year.
Anyone who followed the Toronto Maple Leafs this summer will not be surprised by the news. Shortly after the season began, Orchard exploded on the scene like a Roman candle, blasting four home runs and 20 RBIs to go with his .456 batting average.
With his Ballplayer demeanour and heroics at the plate, Orchard won the appreciation of Leafs fans, and the envy of everyone else.
Orchard was not the only Leaf to win recognition in the league's season-end awards.
Third baseman Johnathan Solazzo received a First Team All Star honour, and shortstop Ryan White was named a Second Team All Star.
The Leafs will return in 2018 to celebrate their 50th season in the IBL.
