The West Michigan Whitecaps clinched a playoff spot in style

The Single-A West Michigan Whitecaps have clinched a playoff spot after a 1-0 shutout win over Fort Wayne. The Whitecaps have reached the postseason in back to back years for the first time since 2006-2007. Here was the scene on the field and in the clubhouse after the victory.

Looks like a decent time. The Whitecaps still have an outside shot at the division as they remain only three games back with five to play.
