What happened: Forward Calvin Harris delivered the 1,000th home goal for the franchise, reaching a milestone that has been building since 1996. The finish against St. Louis City erased a one-goal deficit in the regional clash.

Why it matters: The tally salvaged a point in the MLS standings and cemented a permanent spot in the record books. Officials initially waved off the play for offside before a video review overturned the call.

By the numbers: Harris found the back of the net in the 55th minute off a through ball from Taylor Calheira.

What to watch: The club continues its push for playoff positioning as the regular season schedule advances.
