He was my favorite pitcher growing up. And always was a class act.

Loved to watch the man pitch. A real artist. I have been a life-long Dodger fan. Rough start to 2021, losing both Tommy Lasorda and Don Sutton in such short order. But having said that, they both provided lots of great memories. RIP and may the Lord shine upon you.

My favorite Dodger player! My favorite baseball player! He made a great impression on my sons and encouraged them to follow their dreams. A friendship I will treasure forever. Praying for peace to surround his family at this time.

Rest In Peace Don Sutton, you will be sorely missed. I am a relative of Loyd & Annette McKnight. Loyd was my husband’s 1st Cousin. Prayers for your family. ♥

R.I.P. my friend.. I remember our school days in Molino, Florida where we met about 1955. I recall us being on the Escambia River fishing together, as well as playing ball in the parking lot at Molino Methodist Church.

Never forget you Don. Wonderful teammate, great competitor, talented broadcaster, world class friend and Christian gentleman. So glad we had a chance to talk and laugh together once again in 2017.
Wishing the very best to your fabulous family.

My condolences.

My condolences go out to the family of Don Sutton. What a pitcher. He will be missed by family and baseball fans.

This young man touched so many residents of Vero Beach whem he was here with the "DODGERS". A great memory of his humble interactions with fans as he walked back across DODGERTOWN to the Player's Clubhouse. Thank you for the great memories as a young baseball fan living the dream in Vero Beach.

Thoughts and prayers. Jim Domyan Sr.

My prayers are offered up for his family. There's a school I used to teach at, and I got to coach baseball there for awhile. And after the games, I'd go down to watch and root for the softball squad, which featured among others a firey, take-no-prisoners LEFT-HANDED catcher. I'd sit there sometimes, in our fold-out chairs, talking about the game with a couple of regulars. Turns out one couple was the Suttons. I have nothing but respect for him and his family.

Godspeed, Don.

In loving memory of a wonderful person. We will love you and miss you always.

In memory to a guy that changed my life. Meeting you and having you share your wisdom, kindness and caring ways, is something that I will never forget. There will be a void in everyone’s heart that ever had the pleasure of knowing you. Rest in peace my dear friend. Say hi to my Dad.... I’m sure he has a plate of pasta waiting for you
My sincere condolences to the entire Sutton family

Wow, what a humble man! Definitely not wrapped up in
his Hall of Fame honor.

Class act and will always remember his skill and competitive spirit,condolences to his family and all of his teammates and fans,with sympathy,Anthony Samol

May God comfort you and your family in this time of sorrow. Please accept my sincere condolences.

My deepest sympathy to the family for your loss of Hall of Fame pitcher, Don Sutton. At this difficult time, may the God of comfort strengthen you and give you comfort.

Godspeed Don, and thank you for sharing a part of your life with us, and the wonderful baseball memories both on and off the field.

.. time in memoriam .. a fantastic pitcher and baseball player .... GOD Rest Don's life & soul ... AMEN - ALLELUIA!

A great pitcher, loved his matchups in the '74, '77 and '78 World Series!

Peter

Hall of Fame Player and Broadcaster. That just doesn't due justice to what he was as a person. People like Don leave a hole when they leave. Thank you Don for being the best!

A great pitcher and an even greater human being. Humanity is diminished by his untimely passing.

HE WAS A WONDERFUL BASEBALL ANOUNCER IN ATLANTA. HE HAD A LOT OF CHRISMA WITH THE RADIO BROADCAST GAMES.

May the God of all comfort provide the Sutton family the strength to cope with your loss.

Mr Sutton came to Milwaukee Children’s with the Brewers and one time he and his wife came and read stories to the children on the Hematology, Oncology unit I worked in as a new nurse. Thank you! He was very nice to the kids and their families.

I met Don when we played against each other in high school. He made a point to talk with me after the game. We became friends at Gulf Coast , not only in baseball , but in basketball. Don was our statistician and drove one the station wagons on road trips. I have many wonderful memories of that year. It's very sad to lose one of our Green Mansion Gang. My thoughts and prayers are with the family. God Bless.

Don was a consummate pitcher from first day he stepped on a mound...he was a competitor and an artist. He used cunning and guile to dispose of hitters, as opposed to unhittable pitches...and he did it year after year ! He loved his craft and he lived the dream he had as a boy. I am so proud to say I was a teammate, even fir one single season, Don’s first and only season in College. God Bless Don Sutton and his family...and may he Rest In Peace !

My thoughts and prayers are for the Sutton Family and Friends. I watch the Dodgers all the time and he was a good baseball player and a good announcer. I will miss him.

An amazing pitcher, a legend. Sincere condolences to the Sutton family, may God be with all of you at this very difficult time of your loss.

Don was one of my favorite Dodgers . I have his picture hanging in my office. Seem like a great guy. He will be missed.

Another guy from the good days ( before Steroids ) of baseball.

My condolences to The family. Don was a great person; very friendly and down to earth. He was a great team mate . Peace to the entire family .

He was a great pitcher, great announcer & a nice man. I met once in a hotel bar Cincinnati briefly. We talked about the game a little. I saw him the next am in hotel lobby. I said hi, he stopped, but down his attache case, spoke with me, and gave he his autograph. I was just a regular fan. What a nice man!! I will always treasure that moment.

Don Sutton was one of the all time greats on the field. In the broadcast booth he was a positive ambassador for baseball. I will long remember his many games behind the radio mike that he entertained us all. Listening to Braves baseball will never be the same. He will forever be missed.
God bless his family and friends, they are in my thoughts and prayers.

He was my favorite player of all time. I'll never forget meeting him, he was so down-to-earth and kind. He was an incredible player for the Dodgers. He will be greatly missed.

Don was a generous and kind person. He always related to each person to make that person feel special and appreciated. All of his achievements are a matter of record, but he will also be remembered for relating to everybody. He made my father feel special by saying Happy Birthday on his 70th birthday. That was one of his many kind gestures over the years. As a baseball fan that was a great memory for my father. Love to Don's family at this difficult time.

May the words at Isaiah 61:1,2 prove to be comforting to you. God will bind up the broken hearted... and comfort all who mourn.

I grew up listening to baseball on the radio. As an adult Don rekindled my interest in listening on the radio. Just a joy to listen. Could feel his kindness as well as love for the game over the airways.

I am saddened to hear of Mr. Sutton's passing. He was one of my favorite Dodgers. May Jehovah comfort his loved ones!

You were one of the best, thank you for all the great memories in a dodger uniform, you will never be forgotten, you are a very special person, rest in peace,

Don anchored the Dodgers' rotation when I became as baseball fan, and I loved his work ethic. Never missed a start. Had a chance to meet him when I was in elementary school in 1978 and he got a job working for KNBC TV in the offseason of 1978. Solid guy and a pro in every sense of the word. I followed his career throughout and was so happy when he won his 300th here in So Cal. My thoughts are with his family on their loss. He was one of the greats.

RIP Don. You taught me so much. You will be sorely missed.

My father was a big Dodgers fan and I'm sure he saw you play many times, I am a big Braves fan and I've listened to you for many years. Rest in peace Don!

Hated to see him on the mound against us, but loved hearing him talk about us on the air.

My deepest condolences to Mary, and children. Your beloved Don was a great man: Baseball, and Broadcaster Hall Of Fame, Outstanding Golfer, Intelligent, wise, funny, and loved by millions of fans, and friends. Don's positive personal character was the basis for his many successes and his outlook on life. Don, my friend, you will be missed, and never forgotten. Matty Bogdan.

Wonderful man. Positive. Great ballplayer and gentleman. He will be missed.

I was born in 1965 so Don was in his prime all the time when I was growing up and I remember all the epic battles that he and the Dodgers had with the Yankees in the World Series and I always cheered for him and the Dodgers because I was then and am now a fan of the Kansas City Royals.

I was a rookie at Dodgertown when I first met Don. He took me under his wing. He was an established star but still had the ability to be friends with everyone. He even took my wife for groceries when our car was in the shop. He was a gentleman at every level. He will be missed. My condolences to the Sutton family.

Condolences to the family of Don, he now joins Tommy La Sorda in the Heaven with the greatest baseball field of all

I am a long time baseball fan since 1955 when I collected my first baseball cards and cheered for the Brooklyn Dodgers

Don was great pitcher as well as a great broadcaster.

The family will will be remembered in my daily prayers.

To the Sutton Family:

I am a long time baseball fan since 1955 when I first cheered for the Brooklyn Dodgers and collected my first baseball cards.

Don was a great pitcher for the Dodgers as well as great broadcaster.

I will remember you in my daily prayers.

Peace

Life long Braves fan, always will remember growing up listening to him, Skip Caray, Pete Van Weiren and Joe Simpson calling the games. Learned so much from listening to them. Definitely a sad day in baseball.

Saddened to hear of Don's passing. He was such a nice guy. While he was a Braves broadcaster, I took him some cornflake cookies a couple times, he loved them so much I renamed them "sutton's cookies".. and thought of him when I made some this past Christmas. Rest in Peace Don, you will be remembered and missed.

I have been a lifelong Dodger fan, and I had the privilege of watching him pitch in LA. Watch over us, sir!

May God bless you and your family in this time of sorrow.

Gave & signed a baseball for me. 'Vic, my best always' DS. Ques to Walter Alston, what do ya think of Don Sutton, in minors ? " He's recoilless ." Don holds 2 Dodger records, most wins & losses. Hold 1 MLB record. 1336 at bats, without a home run. Big D only won 20 once also.

To the family,

I would like to extend my condolences to you. Life is truly precious and when we lose our loved ones it breaks our heart. Please know that God is there as a source of comfort and strength. He will hold on to you and help you get through this difficult time. Isa. 41:10.

Dear family members;

I am very sorry to hear about the loss of your loved one.

At a time like this words can’t take away the pain that you feel.

You can accept the kind words and encouragement from friends and family.

We are praying for your endurance. We gain comfort from prayer & meditation on God’s word.

Sincerely,

Phillipa Berio

What a great friend you were never forgot to call me when you were in Cincinnati. You put me close to Major League Baseball it was so much fun thanks and God Bless You.

Wonderful memories and admiration of a 'Dodger Blue.' May God bring comfort to you and the family. Friends await his arrival.

Thanks for giving some extra class to the greatest game on earth. GOD SPEED.

Remembering Don's contribution to the Brewers only year they made it to the World Series. I remember being very excited when the announcement was made that Don was coming to Milwaukee.
My prayers to the Sutton family.

Don saw you pitch many a game at Dodger Stadium. You and Tommy are together again enjoying your time together again. You will be missed, you had a great career in Dodger Blue!

So sorry to lose such a good friend and good golfer. We met Don in the 1960 ‘s when he was stationed at Fort Leavenworth. What a great person ! Gone to soon . RIP

Boy, this is extremely sad and shocking news. Saw Don pitch many many times. At Dodger Stadium, and later at Candlestick Park after I moved north and the Dodgers visited SF. Loved Don's work as an analyst for the Braves, too.

Don was a master pitcher; an assessment that has been made by many. Including Gene Mauch. Don's strong clutch outing, when he pitched for the Brewers, beat Mauch's mighty Angel lineup in the '82 ALCS. And Don pitched for Mauch in Anaheim, a few years later. Legendary curveball (and his other "stuff" was great, too), excellent control/"location," and exceptional preparation and smarts. Watching Don pitch was.a study in poise, professionalism, talent, and the art of "setting up" and "finishing off" a hitter.

Thank you, Don. For the terrific pitching and television work, and for providing a wonderful part of the baseball viewing life for so many. Our memories of your play, and presence, will always be long and fond.

Miss you my old Chipola adversary from your ABAC Boy. That is all you called me. Even when you made HOF. Braves broadcaster at Kissimmee (Astro) spring training. Congratulations Don. Thanks ABAC Boy.

Got to know you when you played with the Brewers. Such a warm and friendly guy. Will be sadly missed but never forgotten. RIP Don

In abt. 1971 I went to a function where baseball legend Don Sutton was a guest speaker. There was time given for guest questions. I raised my hand and he took my question. I asked him how he would pitch to Roberto Clemente. He replied, "Very Carefully.)" I will never forget his curly hair, gentle smile, and kindness that radiated toward others. Just learned his middle name, making it even more special. May his family be comforted with his dedication, and kindness for others.

I saw Don pitch when I was just a kid. What an inspiration! Rest in peace

I wouldnt be the diehard fan I am in South Dakota without Don. My sincerest condolences to the Sutton family and the Braves organization. Don was family and he made me love the game as much as he did. Rest in peace.

Don Sutton was one of the Dodgers best pitchers in his prime. What a shock it was to hear he passed away ? Only the great Sandy Koufax remain as the lone Hall of Famer still living & he is almost 91. RIP Don you will be missed by all LA fans.

Although I never met Don Sutton, he was my voice for the Braves. I loved his humor and knowledge he brought to the booth. Prayers for the family! Thanks for sharing him with his fans!

Don Sutton was a wonderful person who loved Baseball and he played Baseball and he announced Atlanta Braves Games.He will never be forgotten ever and my thoughts and condolences go out to his family,friends and fans too.

Was already missing his presence in the broadcasting booth. A southern boy like so many Braves fans he was, and certainly will be, missed. RIP Don

REST IN PEACE DON SUTTON. TRULY A FEARED PITCHER TO FACE WHEN YOU ARE THE FAN OF AN OPPOSING TEAM . PRAYERS TO THE SUTTON FAMILY, GOD BLESS YOU!!

A great playing career marked by unbelievable consistency. An exemplary announcer for the Braves, Sutton provided much in the way of insight, particularly on the subject of pitching. I enjoyed his time in the broadcasting for Atlanta. He will be sorely missed!

a great player and announcer, always recall Suttons rule of 3 every team will loose a third of games, win a third of games, what the team does in remaining third, determines final standing. A Fan who loved to listen to his announcing the games on tv as well as radio.

We have lost a legend. I learned to love baseball by listening to Don Sutton explain the nuances in his special way. Funny, smart, and an all time Great!
He will be deeply missed.

I met Don Sutton twice in my life. Once in Chattanooga at a caravan just before the 1991 season and again in Atlanta at Turner Field in 2013. He was really nice to me and I’ll never forget it. Gonna miss Don. Rest In Peace!

In loving memory of a wonderful person. We will love you and miss you always.

A great pitcher, a team player and a superior role model. Someone I looked up to as a boy and continued as a man. RIP sir as heaven gets a heck of a curveball for their team. Pat Cochran and family.
