Chicago Fire (11-9-6, 39 points) earned a 3-2 victory over St. Louis CITY SC (5-15-6, 21 points) Saturday night at SeatGeek Stadium. Forward Hugo Cuypers tallied to open the match before winger Philip Zinckernagel and midfielder Brian Gutiérrez scored unanswered goals to win it in the second half.

After controlling the early stretch of the match, Gutiérrez played the ball forward to left back Andrew Gutman on the wing. The defender then played a ball across the six-yard box, where Cuypers finished to put Chicago on the board in the 16th minute.

The Schaumburg Boomers were unable to hold a 4-0 lead in the opener but rallied from down 4-0 in the second game to split a pair of contests with the New Jersey Jackals on Saturday night.

**** Recommended  I had to look it up, but I discovered that the last time I saw a production of "Parade" was in 2005. A revival is a long time coming – and the results were worth waiting for. This is a beautiful production, but it is not a happy story. Based on a true and very dark episode in Georgia history, Parade explores anti-Semitism in the south. "Parade" is a must-see musical. 4 Spotlights
