MOST READ


[DATEBOOK] Major League Soccer released its 2010 regular-season schedule -- the first balanced schedule in its history. Each team will play each other twice, once at home, once away, in 2010.

The season kicks off March 25 with the inaugural game of Philadelphia Union, MLS's 16th team, at last year's debutant, Seattle Sounders FC on ESPN2, ESPN Deportes and ESPN360.com.

On Saturday, March 27, Fox Soccer Channel will launch its 2010 match coverage - this year in high definition -- with a California doubleheader: The San Jose Earthquakes host defending MLS Cup Champion Real Salt Lake at 9 p.m. ET, and then the 2009 Western Conference Champion LA Galaxy face the New England Revolution at The Home Depot Center.

Red Bull Arena will host its first League match on March 27 when the New York Red Bulls face the Chicago Fire at 7 p.m. ET (live on ESPN, ESPN Deportes and ESPN360.com).

The 2010 MLS All-Star Game will pit the MLS all-stars against ain international opponent at Reliant Stadium in Houston in late July or early August. The date and opponent for the game will be announced at a later date, but it will be broadcast live by ESPN2 and TeleFutura.

The 2010 regular season concludes Oct. 24 with a pair of games. Eight teams will qualify for the MLS playoffs, which begin the following weekend, Oct. 28-30. The championship match, MLS Cup 2010, will be held Nov. 21 at a venue to be announced later.

The TV schedule includes:

-- 25 games on ESPN2, plus one game on ESPN, all simulcast on ESPN360 and in Spanish ESPN Deportes.

-- 31 games on Fox Soccer Channel. Most games on FSC will be simulcast in Spanish on Fox Sports en Español. The Fox MLS schedule includes four Sunday matches from July 18 to Aug. 8.

-- 23 games will be broadcast live on TeleFutura, all on Saturdays starting at 4 p.m. ET. This is a switch from TeleFutura's previous Sunday time slot.
