Hall-of-fame pitcher and Los Angeles Dodgers great Don Sutton has died at the age of 75, his family announced Tuesday. Sutton died in his sleep Monday night, his son Daron Sutton tweeted. Sutton, shown, was inducted into the Hall of Fame in 1998 after a 23-year career spent mostly with the Dodgers. Sutton won 324 games against 256 losses and finished with 3,574 strikeouts. He spent 16 seasons with the Dodgers, winning 233 games. He made his debut on April 14, 1966, at 21 years old. A four-time all-star — all with the Dodgers — Sutton’s teams made four World Series appearances, winning none. He finished with a career 6-4 post-season record with the Dodgers, Milwaukee Brewers and California Angels. Sutton’s 324 wins are tied for 14th all-time. He’s ranked 10th in shutouts (58), seventh in innings pitched (5,282.1) and strikeouts (3,574) and third in games started (756). Sutton won his 300th game on June 18, 1986, in a complete game win over the Texas Rangers. Sutton turned to the broadcast booth in his post-playing days, most notably with the Atlanta Braves.
