SEATTLE — The release of the starting lineup for the Seattle Sounders set off celebrations around the Puget Sound; Osvaldo Alonso was back, sporting his signature shaved head and ready to give the Sounders the adrenaline shot he has become known for injecting them with in his 10-year career in Seattle.
The club had received a taste of what Alonso would bring in a 2-2 road draw against Sporting Kansas City April 15. Sunday at CenturyLink Field, the team and fans of the Sounders got the full dose of what the Cuban could provide.
