    The sentence is incorrect because it uses a comma before "and" to connect two independent clauses. To correct, remove the comma before "and" and replace it with a period or semicolon.

    No, the sentence "He can hand out tickets, organize teams, and keep scores" is actually correct in terms of punctuation. It uses a comma before each item in a list of actions performed by "He." The use of commas in a series or list is valid in this context.
