The Batang Pier dished out a near perfect game to end their slump, pulling off a big 109-83 rout of the KaTropa to keep their playoff hopes alive at the Smart Araneta Coliseum last night. “Legends are made in doing special feats, like when you’re virtually out and you come alive and rise all the way to the top. With the win, the Batang Pier improved to 3-6, now just half-game behind the eighth-running NLEX Road Warriors (4-6). “I’m happy for the players they still felt that sense of urgency to win,” said San Miguel coach Leo Austria.
