KANSAS CITY, Mo. – If there's one thing Sporting Kansas City haven't had to worry about since moving into their new home in 2011, it's whether the fans will show up.
But even with a string of 75 straight shutouts at Children's Mercy Park going into Sunday's match against Orlando City SC (3:30 pm ET, ESPN), fan frustration over Sporting's seven-match winless streak led club CEO Robb Heineman to put out a long Twitter message earlier this week asking supporters for their patience – especially with Kansas City headed into a three-match homestand after playing five of six on the road.
