Mariners fans got what they asked for, Kevin Mather is gone. After his controversial statements reached the public, fans did not hold back for good reason. Although in baseball you get three strikes, Mather only needed two to be ousted.
Fans are still a little disappointed in how the Mariners organization responded. The former President resigned from his position, rather than being fired (although he was probably forced to resign).
