It’s been a tough few days for the Seattle Mariners and their fans, as the team was eliminated from the playoffs on Sunday. But one of the team’s players has made it even tougher, as catcher Cal Raleigh issued an apology for his post-playoff elimination comments.
Raleigh had made some controversial comments after the game, saying that the team had “let down” its fans and that they should have done better. He also said that he was “disappointed” in himself for not performing better.
The comments were met with a lot of criticism from fans, who felt that Raleigh was being too hard on himself and the team. In response, Raleigh issued an apology on Monday, saying that he was “truly sorry” for his comments and that he was “not proud” of them.
Raleigh also said that he was “thankful” to be part of the Mariners organization and that he was “grateful” for the support of the fans. He said that he would continue to work hard to help the team win in the future.
The apology was well-received by fans, who appreciated Raleigh’s humility and willingness to take responsibility for his words. It’s clear that Raleigh is a leader on the team and that he takes his role seriously.
The Mariners may have been eliminated from the playoffs, but it’s clear that they still have a lot of fight left in them. And with players like Cal Raleigh leading the way, they have a bright future ahead of them.
