Default RIP Don Sutton

It’s been a bad year for great pitchers. And a really bad week for Dodgers fans.

I hadn't heard Don had passed. I have a bunch of his baseball cards from the 70s and 80s. 324 wins and a Hall of Famer.

RIP Don.

I hadn't heard that either. Great pitcher... I always enjoyed watching him pitch. May he RIP.

I think it was Don Sutton that picked off Herb Washington the Oakland A's fast pinch runner in the World Series. He gave a couple sorry moves and then laid it on him.

He deserves the HOF! We miss you already!

Dang, not another. Fingers crossed we don't lose Koufax any time soon.

RIP Mr. Sutton!

If he was on the mound, his team was in the game. He had a lot of ways to win.

That's a fact, he was tricky. He was a huge asset to the Brewers in his short time there. RIP, Don.
