Giving a whole new meaning to the phrase “foul ball,” H. Elizabeth King, a psychologist, accused her ex-husband of violating their 2002 divorce agreement over how to divvy up tickets to Atlanta Braves games.

Prior to her divorce, King says she had four tickets to 27 home games as part of a three-way, season-ticket partnership. Under her divorce agreement, her ex got the first home game, then each got 13 games. When one of the partners died last year, King’s ownership increased to a full third.

At a court hearing earlier this week King claimed that her ex, who distributed the tickets to the partners, offered her tickets to games that conflicted with her schedule—on purpose. She also suggested that he gave her tickets to day games because she had skin cancer.

King's ex testified that he distributed tickets sequentially, according to a mathematical formula which he adjusted when people made special requests or if there were conflicting schedules.

Superior Court Judge Melvin K. Westmoreland urged the baseball-loving exes to settle out of court.
