Blackwater laid its four-game losing slide to rest by taking the scalp of no less than San Miguel by way of a 126-120 decision in the PBA Season 50 Commissioner’s Cup at the Ninoy Aquino Stadium on Wednesday evening.
The Bossing actually coughed up a 22-point lead no thanks to the Beermen’s third-quarter retaliation and figured in a tight exchange later, but simply wanted it more as heroes were aplenty in making sure that an upset would materialize.
Christian David and Sedrick Barefield conspired to put them ahead for good from a 114-113 deficit, before BJ Andrade came through with key hits off hustle plays to help widen the gap to six points inside the final 1:26 of the bout.
Then came Robert Upshaw III with the split that settled the final count, ultimately enabling the crew to finally witness their hard work bear fruit–and in the process give interim head coach Pat Aquino his first win at the helm.
