The Seattle Sounders moved into fourth place in the Western Conference — at least for a day — after an impressive 2-0 road win over Toronto FC in which they used just four of their ideal starters and rotated five players from the weekend. Dylan Teves scored in his first career MLS start and Fredy Montero got his franchise-best 56th career MLS goal to pace the win.
