Seattle Mariners president and CEO Kevin Mather resigned from the Major League Baseball club after disparaging comments he made earlier this month were made public over the weekend, according to an announcement Monday by team chairman John Stanton.
The Seattle Times was the first to report details of Mather s comments, which were made February 5 to the Bellevue Breakfast Rotary Club in Washington. The rotary club released a roughly 45-minute video of Mather s comments on its YouTube page, which has since been deleted, according to MLB.com.
