RAPIDS AT FIRE The facts: 7:30 Comcast SportsNet, 1200-AM (Spanish). The story line: The Fire is forward a season-high four-game winning streak -- sum of two units straight in MLS play to prompt into a tie for secondary in the Eastern Conference, and pair in U.S. Open Cup competition to advance to the semifinals. Midfielder Chris Armas says the Fire is playing its best soccer in the same manner far this season. "But we know we can play long better, and that's what we aim to do," goalie Zach Thornton said. During the win streak the Fire has pillared three shutouts and outscored adverse partys by a cumulative 8-1 margin. This will be the first of brace games against the Rapids (9-8-5) which ranks third in the Western talk but has given up a league-high 34 goals.
