FRISCO -- When he was selected by FC Dallas in the 2012 MLS Draft, Matt Hedges just wanted some playing time. He's found that and far more.
When Hedges steps on the field for FCD against Columbus Crew SC on Saturday, he will make his 213th regular season appearance for the club, moving past Bobby Rhine into second place all-time.
Already he has started more matches than Rhine, and should he stay healthy during the 2019 campaign -- and in manager Luchi Gonzalez's good graces -- he'll pass former forward Jason Kreis' all-time marks of 227 matches started and 20,290 minutes played.
