Sad news: The Seattle Mariners head coach has announced his retirement due to his health conditions.

The head coach of the Seattle Mariners has announced his resignation owing to health issues. This is sad news.

After more than ten years of major league experience, which included helping the Washington Nationals win the 2019 World Series, Scott Servis has decided to retire from baseball.

In a lengthy social media statement on Friday, Doolittle made his choice public.

The left-handed reliever was named an All-Star in 2014 and 2018 and played for the Oakland Athletics and Washington for the majority of his career. In his brief remarks, he thanked the Seattle Mariners and Cincinnati Reds for giving him a greater chance of making it to the Immaculate Grid.

When the Nationals traded for Doolittle in 2017, general manager Mike Rizzo stated the organization felt it was acquiring a fantastic reliever and person, and that proved to be accurate.

In a statement, Rizzo said of Sean, “A World Champion, All-Star, and leader in the clubhouse, Sean set an example of what it means to be a pillar of the community.” “When called upon, he took the ball with the same ferocity as they display on the mound.”

After being selected by the Athletics in the first round in 2007 as a first baseman out of the University of Virginia, Doolittle made his professional debut in 2012 and played in 463 games. At the time, injuries had him considering retirement.
