SANDY, Utah – Real Salt Lake forward Corey Baird put the game away for the home side, giving them their third goal of the night in a 3-0 win over the Seattle Sounders.
In the 87th minute, Baird put the game out of reach with a goal. Damir Kreilach set Baird up, who beat the backline in a foot race and was one-on-one with the goalkeeper and scored the goal with his right foot.

Baird scored two goals against Sporting Kansas City on Saturday and in the last two games has scored three of his four goals.
It took some time for the reigning MLS Rookie of the Year to find a rhythm but is now playing very well.
Sam Johnson scored the first goal of the night in the 25th minute and Albert Rusnak added the second one in the 71st minute.
