Representing the Club
After starting and playing 90 minutes this past Saturday, forward Chris Wondolowski surpassed 24,000 minutes with San Jose (24,011). He becomes the sixth player in MLS history to surpass 24,000 career minutes with a single MLS club. Wondo, currently at 24,928 total MLS minutes between San Jose and Houston, would become the 32nd field player to ever reach 25,000 career minutes in the league should he play at least 72 minutes on Saturday.

Heavy Workload
Nick Lima has played 2,689 minutes so far this season, second most among all non-goalkeepers in MLS (Union’s Auston Trusty – 2,700).
