San Miguel squandered an early double-digit lead, but fended off a strong comeback attempt from TNT to gut out a narrow 91-89 win in the PBA Philippine Cup on Sunday at the Ynares Center Antipolo. The Beermen led by as many as 15 before the Tropang Giga mounted a huge second half, but the former held on to improve to 2-0 while the latter dropped to an even 2-2 card.
After a split as well from Jericho Cruz, TNT was able to manufacture a final play during the last timeout but Chris Ross' pesky defense on Castro forced big man Brandon Ganuelas-Rosser to take the desperate triple and missed. June Mar Fajardo top-scored San Miguel off the bench, churning out a double-double of 15 points and 17 rebounds while Cruz, Marcio Lassiter, and Don Trollano each listed 12 markers. Castro finished with 20 points for the Chot Reyes-mentored squad while Pogoy had 14.
