Edson Buddle hit his 2nd hat trick of the season this weekend against the San Jose Earthquakes. That was all the Galaxy needed to dispose of the Quakes 3-0. With this win the Galaxy are alone at the top of the western conference and tied with TFC for 3rd overall.
This has also moved Buddle into the 2nd position on the Budweiser Golden Boot list right behind teammate Landon Donovan. Donovan has 9 goals and Buddle has 8 – each have played in only 9 games. Most of the league’s top scorers have played 12 or 13 games.
The recent form of Buddle has some suggesting he may deserve a shot with the US mens national team.
