National Baseball Hall of Famer and former Cincinnati Reds great Johnny Bench was among those offering tributes via social media Tuesday to Don Sutton, the Hall of Fame pitcher for the Los Angeles Dodgers, Houston Astros, Milwaukee Brewers, Oakland A’s and California Angels – and long-time Atlanta Braves broadcaster – who died at age 75.
During a 2014 appearance at Green Diamond Gallery in Montgomery, Sutton told an audience of baseball fans, “I loved your city and I loved Sparky (Anderson). I hated your (Riverfront Stadium) turf.”
