San Miguel scored back-to-back wins after beating Blackwater, 115-102, in the PBA Season 49 Commissioner’s Cup at the Ynares Center in Antipolo on Sunday, Dec. 15.

Import Torren Jones churned out 29 points and 14 rebounds while June Mar Fajardo piled up 27 markers and 22 boards for the Beermen, who brushed off a 40-point eruption from Bossing reinforcement George King.

The Beermen thus improved to 3-2 in Leo Austria’s second game back as head coach of the famed franchise.
