Who was the MVP of the 1991 Atlanta Braves-Minnesota Twins World Series?

Jack Morris was the MVP of the 1991 World Series between the Minnesota Twins and Atlanta Braves. The veteran right-hander earned the award after delivering one of the most memorable pitching performances in World Series history.

Morris started three games in the seven-game series and won two. His defining moment came in Game 7, when he pitched all 10 innings in a tense 1–0 Minnesota victory. Morris allowed only seven hits and no runs, helping the Twins win the championship in the longest scoreless World Series Game 7 ever played at that time.

The 1991 Series is often remembered as one of baseball’s greatest because five games were decided by one run, including three games that went into extra innings. Morris’s Game 7 shutout was especially notable because complete games had become increasingly uncommon. The Braves’ John Smoltz and the Twins’ Kirby Puckett also had outstanding series, but Morris received the official MVP award.
