Upon the news that a second Dodgers Hall of Famer had died this month, lots of folks remembered Don Sutton for both his 23-year playing career and three decades as a broadcaster, the bulk of the latter for the Braves.
“There are Hall of Famers immortalized for their prodigious slugging and for the lightning in their arms, and there are plenty celebrated for their popularity, but perhaps none are more relatable to fans than Sutton: He showed up for work, and he did his job well,” wrote Bill Shaikin at the Los Angeles Times.
