The Beermen showed their class for the most part of the tight contest even as they eventually opened an 11-point lead, 95-84, with 2:20 to play. The Elasto Painters, however, banked on six straight free throws to cut the lead down to five, 95-90, with 1:19 left.

June Mar Fajardo chipped in a double-double of 10 points and 16 rebounds plus a career-high seven assists and three blocks. Jewel Po ....
