Former Angel Don Sutton created special memories as a Halo

When Don Sutton pitched for the California Angels it was an exciting time for the team. The Angels acquired Sutton from Oakland for a push in the 1985 AL West title race. Sutton went 2-2 with a 3.69 ERA in five starts. The Angels fell short that season, but in the next year, the Halos put it all together with a mix of youth and veterans to win the 1986 AL West Title.

During that season I was able to watch Sutton pitch twice and both games were very memorable.
