Smoke Delays Lewandowski MLS Debut as Fire–Whitecaps Postponed to October

TL;DR Summary
Chicago Fire–Vancouver Whitecaps, set to feature Robert Lewandowski in his MLS debut, was postponed to Oct. 6 due to very unhealthy to hazardous air quality from Canadian wildfire smoke; Illinois declared an Air Pollution Action Day and outdoor activities were limited. The postponement also frames a Berhalter family angle as Gregg Berhalter coaches against his son Sebastian; several other MLS games remained on the schedule.
