Alaska Milk clung onto life as it topped Rain or Shine, 95-89, in their knockout setto in the PBA Governors Cup finals at the Smart Araneta Coliseum.
The bad news is that the Aces have to pray for a Rain or Shine win over Barangay Ginebra tomorrow to salvage the second finals seat.
It’s Petron should it finish in a three-way tie with Alaska and Barangay Ginebra.
Ginebra gets it if it beats Rain or Shine and Petron loses to Talk n Text. – Nelson Beltran
