RENTON, WASH. - As Sounders FC heads back to Southern California this Saturday to take on the LA Galaxy in the Audi 2024 MLS Cup Playoffs Western Conference Final (7:00 p.m. PT / Apple TV, iHeartMedia Seattle, El Rey 1360 AM), the Seattle area continues to show its support for the team's relentless postseason run.

Earlier this week, several Sounders players visited Pike Place Fish Market to participate in a traditional fish toss and present jerseys to staff, who had invited the club to take part in their traditional tossing to celebrate the Rave Green's Audi 2024 MLS Cup Playoffs run. Still photos and video b-roll are available to media for editorial use.

Fans heading to Victory Hall for the club's official watch party should be sure to stop by for a special photo opportunity.
