Even though the players played sluggish, we were able to come out as winners and I&#x27;m happy for them,&quot; head coach Leo Austria said.With June Mar Fajardo still playing limited minutes, McKines continued to carry San Miguel, going for 35 points on top of 14 rebounds and seven assists.Santos wasn&#x27;t too bad himself, adding another 30 points, 21 coming from deep, to go along with eight rebounds and five blocks. Alex Cabagnot scored 27 points, grabbed seven rebounds, and dished out four assists for the now 3-1 Beermen.The Batang Pier, who dropped to 2-3, got 26 points from the returning Terrence Romeo while import Murphey Holloway added another 25.
