Though the Los Angeles Dodgers captured their first World Series title in 32 years last season, 2021 has been a struggle for the franchise’s family.
First, it was Vin Scully’s wife, Sandra, who was lost due to complications from ALS at the age of 76 back in January. Then, a few days later, legendary manager Tommy Lasorda passed away from a heart attack at the age of 93. A couple weeks later, Hall of Famer Don Sutton succumbed to kidney cancer at the age of 75.
Unfortunately, we have more bad news on Tuesday. Lasorda’s widow, Jo Lasorda, died on Monday evening at the age of 91, eight months after her husband and just two days before his birthday.
