You're locked in to Sports Desk, let's get into it.
Pete Crow-Armstrong is facing disciplinary action tonight after an incident with a fan in the outfield at Rate Field during Sunday's Cubs-White Sox matchup. The twenty-four-year-old center fielder has been fined an undisclosed amount according to sources close to the situation, and the league isn't saying much more than that. Not the kind of headline you want mid-season.
Meanwhile, the NBA's Eastern Conference Finals are officially underway as the Cleveland Cavaliers and New York Knicks tipped off Game One tonight. This is the matchup the league wanted, two of the East's most battle-tested rosters going at it with a Finals berth on the line. Expect this series to be physical, tight, and go deep.
And out in Tempe, Arizona State sophomore Landon Hairston is your Big Twelve Player of the Year after a season that has been nothing short of extraordinary. Twenty-seven home runs on the year, tying the single-season Sun Devils record, while ranking top five nationally in average, RBI, and slugging. At just a sophomore, the kid is already rewriting program history.
That's your play-by-play. Sports Desk, back to the booth.
