A native of Washington, D.C., Morton graduated from Armstrong High School in 1950 and later graduated from Howard University.
He also has a stint in the United States Coast Guard.
In 1955 Morton became the third black player signed by the Detroit Tigers (though others beat him to the major leagues), one of the first black men to play for the post-war Terre Haute franchise of the Three-I League in 1956, and one of the first black men to play for the Durham Bulls.
With the Bulls in 1957, he batted .310 with 18 home runs and 82 runs batted in to lead the club to their first Carolina League championship.

In the middle of his major league career, Morton was a member of the Seattle Angels team that won the Pacific Coast League pennant in 1966.
A prime pinch-hitter, his best season was 1967, when he hit .313 in 80 games.
During the same period he committed only one error in 251 chances in the outfield.
In a seven-season career, Morton was a .267 hitter with 14 home runs and 128 RBI in 451 games.
He finished his career with a .989 fielding percentage.
