Reds pick up much needed road victory
Eight of the final 13 games are away from BMO Field

SANTA CLARA, Calif. - Much has been made about Toronto FC's inability to win on the road and against the Western Conference.
Toronto certainly killed two birds with one stone with its 3-1 victory over San Jose on Saturday night at Buck Shaw Stadium.
And if Toronto is to solidify a playoff spot, it will have to duplicate performances like Saturday's. Eight of Toronto's remaining 13 games are on the road and against Western Conference teams.
Even with Saturday's victory, Toronto is a woeful 2-5-1 against the Western Conference and just 2-3-2 on the road.
