One person on Twitter who goes by @ror925 responded to the tweet, wondering why he didn't get the job.
@Mariners does this mean I didn't get the job? I thought the interview went great.

Usually, tweets like this one never receive a response, but the Mariners' Twitter account was willing to play along.
@ror925 Sorry, we meant to call you before the news broke. Best of luck in the future.

The interaction continued.
@Mariners I just dont understand why you don't think my MLB The Show franchise success won't carry over.

Then, the M's account had nice comeback of their own.
@ror925 That decision you made in 2019 was a major red flag for us.

The Mariners' Twitter account didn't even need to bother responding to this person, but they did and they handled it all masterfully. Well done, guys. Well done.
