Former Braves broadcaster will rejoin the radio team this season alongside Jim Powell, taking over for the great Skip Caray and Pete Van Wieren. Sutton was part of the Braves broadcast team for 18 years before moving on to the Washington Nationals. He was released from his current contracts so that he could rejoin Atlanta. After the sudden loss of Skip and the ensuing retirement of Pete, the Braves fanbase took a major hit. Its been hard to imagine listening to Braves radio again without the two of them, but the club did a good job by returning a familiar voice to the booth. Having Sutton call the games will help bring back some of that nostalgia from the 90's dynasty, and its good to have him back.

After Skip, Pete and Ernie Sr., Sutton is the best commentator the Braves have had. Pitching, pitching, pitching—and he knows all about it.
