The Revolution (4-5-4) has lost two straight.
Eskandarian scored eight minutes into the game off a feed from Todd Dunivant from the left wing into the middle of the box.

The lead could have grown to 2-0. In the 30th minute, Omar Gonzalez headed the ball but it went straight to goalkeeper Matt Reis.
