On Friday night, sports fans in the Dallas-Fort Worth area have a lot to look forward to. The Texas Rangers kick off the evening by playing against the Kansas City Royals at 6:40 p.m. The game will be shown on TXA 21 instead of the usual Bally Sports Southwest channel.
Following the Rangers game, there are two playoff games happening. The Dallas Mavericks will be hosting the Los Angeles Clippers at 8:30 p.m., which will be shown on ESPN and locally on Bally Sports Southwest. Meanwhile, the Dallas Stars will be facing off against the Vegas Golden Knights at 9 p.m., airing on TNT and locally on Bally Sports Southwest Extra. Both teams have the opportunity to clinch first-round series victories with wins.
Adding to the excitement of the evening, there is also a preseason game between the WNBA’s Dallas Wings and Indiana Fever happening at College Park Center on the UT-Arlington campus. This game marks Caitlin Clark’s league debut and has generated intense interest from sports fans nationally. The game is sold out, with ticket prices comparable to those for the Mavs-Clippers Game 6 playoff game.
Overall, it’s a night filled with sports action for fans in the Dallas-Fort Worth area, from baseball to basketball to hockey to women’s basketball, there’s something for everyone to enjoy on Friday night.
