KANSAS CITY, MO (Saturday, October 2, 2004) - The Kansas City Wizards clinched home field advantage in the first round of the playoffs with a 1-1 tie with the Los Angeles Galaxy on Saturday night.

The Wizards can still clinch home field advantage throughout the playoffs with a win or tie next weekend in San Jose. A Kansas City win or tie next weekend (or a Los Angeles loss or tie against Dallas) would mean the Wizards would be guaranteed of hosting the Western Conference title game at Arrowhead if they advance past the first round of the playoffs.
