Then it's time to preview Seattle's upcoming showdown with San Diego FC at Lumen Field this Saturday. We'll see if we can figure out why SDFC have regressed from last year’s historic expansion form, and why Anders Dreyer still makes them dangerous. Later on, we'll dive into some league-wide results reaction from Matchday 11, including the fallout from Inter Miami blowing a 3-0 lead to Orlando City, which many are calling one of the biggest chokes/greatest comebacks in MLS history. Are they in freefall in South Florida, or can Lionel Messi & Co. right the ship?\n\nJoin us live on the Lobbing Scorchers YouTube every Monday at 8 am PT to kick off your week with the latest on all things Rave Green and Major League Soccer.
