My favorite Dodger pitcher when I was a kid. I remember him coming out of the bullpen as a reliver in the playoffs, the game after starting.

That sucks. I grew up watching Don, Pete, Skip and Joe. I can't tell you how many hours I watched with those guys. It's so weird that three of them are gone.

Damn. RIP. Grew up with him and the Braves.

Had several bud heavies with Don Sutton in Orange Beach about 20 years ago. Very nice man and was fantastic on TBS with the rest of the crew.

Born in Clio, Alabama, and grew up around Pensacola, pitched for Tate High. According to Sports Illustrated, he lost only one game as a high school pitcher, 1-0, to Foley High from Alabama. He struck out 14, Foley pitcher struck out 16. Y'all might have heard of the Foley pitcher. Name was Stabler.

I came along at the time where I got to see Sutton pitch for everybody. I remember him for about three years with LA. Then to Houston, Milwaukee, Oakland, and California. Of course, then he was the Braves analyst on TBS. Always liked Sutton as a pitcher and announcer. RIP poodle doo.

Great player.
Legendary Braves announcer.
The only Braves announcer better was Ernie Johnson Sr.
(And yes, sycophants, that includes Skip Cary.)

Phil Niekro & Don Sutton.
2 of my all time favorite pitchers gone in the last 2 or 3 weeks.
Neither had over powering stuff.
They simply knew how to pitch, eat up innings, get guys out, each winning over 300 games.
Sutton was the definition of durability. In his 23 years as a MLB Pitcher, he never missed his turn in the rotation.
Don's Senior year of high school at Clio Alabama, he would face Foley Alabama for the baseball state championship. Kenny "Snake" Stabler would be the opposing pitcher.
Foley won the game 1-0. Don had 14 strikeouts. Snake had 16. It would be Don's only loss as a high school starting pitcher.
324 wins would follow in his great MLB career.
RIP Don.
