Vets step up as Beermen tie PBA title series at 2-2

Old warriors Olsen Racela and Danny Ildefonso turned back the hands of time Sunday at the Big Dome, joining forces in the fourth quarter and helping San Miguel survived a furious Talk `N Text rally in the Beermen's 91-87 win in Game Four of the PBA Philippine Cup best-of-seven finals series.

The win enabled the Beermen to level the series at two games apiece and gain the momentum going into the pivotal fifth game at the Araneta Coliseum on Wednesday.

Ildefonso scored seven of his 17 points in the pivotal fourth, while Racela nailed four straight points from the foul line inside the last 52 seconds, including the final two, that clinched the win for the Beermen before a crowd of 11,978. - RCJ, GMANews.TV
