With veteran LA Tenorio making his imprint in a rare start, the Gin Kings jolted Meralco early en route to a runaway 90-71 equalizer in Game 4 of the PBA Philippine Cup semifinal series yesterday at the MOA Arena.
By striking back after conceding the last two matches, 91-103 and 80-87, coach Tim Cone and his never-say-die crew dragged the Bolts to a virtual best-of-three in this hard-fought dispute for a finals seat.
The old rivals break their 2-2 deadlock and race to get on the hill first tomorrow.
