In arguably the most tragic L Pod in Lobbing Scorchers history, we unfortunately recap Seattle’s latest defeat to LAFC, this time 1-0 in the US Open Cup semifinals. Was it a penalty? Was Jordan Morris offside? We weigh in on the controversy at Starfire.

Later on we hit our Agenda Check, take your questions and preview Seattle’s upcoming Cascadia rivalry matchup at the Portland Timbers.
