United.[1] He drew a penalty in the match, which was subsequently converted by Steve Ralston in the 94th minute of play.[1] The penalty gave the Revolution a 1-0 victory in the match, and clinched a spot for the club in the 2003 MLS Cup Playoffs.[1] Bagley appeared as a substitute for Darío Fabbro in each of the Revolution's final two matches of the season, home and away ties against the MetroStars, and also appeared as an 87th-minute substitute for Jason Moore in the home tie of the Eastern Conference Semifinal, again against the MetroStars.[9]
