Tuesday’s Sports

NBA

Tickets to the Western Conference Finals went on sale at 10:00 am Monday. And things went just as you might expect. Only resale tickets were available on Ticketmaster. The prices for Game 3, the first home game between the Mavericks and Warriors at the American Airlines Center in Dallas, were around $240 for the upper deck. If you want something closer to the action, you’re looking at $500 and above. Resale tickets were around the same price on StubHub.

HIGH SCHOOL

The Whitney Wildcats beat Academy last Saturday to clinch the series win, and then controversy arose. The official scorebook indicated that Whitney’s pitcher was over the legal number of allotted pitches when he threw to the final batter. However, Whitney’s internal tracker said he was one pitch below the limit and was allowed to pitch for one more at-bat. A forfeit loomed.

The UIL’s State Executive Committee met with both schools Monday morning via zoom. Unfortunately, the official scorebook tallied a balk as a pitch, and they credited another throw to the wrong pitcher. They ruled Whitney would advance.
