SAN JOSE -- Innocent is restless. The Earthquakes' designated player is eager to show what he can do almost one year after suffering a major knee injury.
The team is just as curious about Innocent's abilities as San Jose starts a two-game trip at Philadelphia on Saturday against the Union (4-3-0).The 5-foot-7 Swiss striker probably won't get the call right now because Quincy Amarikwa has created an unbreakable bond with Chris Wondolowski, who has scored seven goals in the first eight games of 2016. But the time is coming when the third-place Quakes (4-2-2) need to see if their multimillion-dollar investment has been worthwhile.
