The Men in Red travel to Gillette Stadium to take on the Revolution in an MLS matchup. The Fire and Revolution represent one of the league's intense rivalries. The two have met 15 times in postseason play, with the results an evenly split 7-7-1. Besides, no one likes Boston-area sports teams.
ATTEND
Rush vs. Spokane

New mascot alert! The Rush will introduce Bruiser the Bulldog in a pregame ceremony. Don't worry, though, longtime mascot Grabowski remains a part of the team. So, yes, the Rush will be using the rarely seen two-mascot format.
