By BOB MACKIN

Chin scored the winner with a blast off the underside of the crossbar in the 86th. - AUSTIN CITY LIMITED: The 10-10-9 Whitecaps await the last-place Cleveland City Stars to end the regular season on Friday. - BERTHED: The defending champion Whitecaps clinched a playoff berth by default two days earlier when the Miami FC Blues were 2-1 losers to the Charleston Battery. |
