Gore a go; Alexander out

After missing last week's game with a sprained ankle, Frank Gore will start tonight for the 49ers. His Seattle counterpart Shaun Alexander, who like Gore was listed as questionable on the injury report this week, will not play due to an array of injuries including a sprained knee.
Receiver Deion Branch and linebacker Leroy Hill also will sit for Seattle. Cornerback Walt Harris, out last week with a knee injury, will start for the 49ers.
The 49ers inactives include safety Keith Lewis, who went through a full week of practice on his injured hamstring. The back-up safety tonight likely will be rookie Dashon Golson. WR LeRon McCoy, CB Tarell Brown, T Patrick Estes, DL Atiyyah Ellison, DE Ray McDonald and WR Jason Hill. Hill, who played collegiately at Washington State, said he had several ticket requests for tonight's game. Shaun Hill is the third quarterback.
