MLS is back in full swing! The final weekend in February kicked off the 2023 season. It saw 13 matches be played, one postponed because of a blizzard from Saturday to Monday; and the first El Trafico of the year was rescheduled due to crazy cold weather with thunderstorms in Los Angeles. Despite the winter weather out west, MLS' 2023 season started!
