San Miguel Beer and June Mar Fajardo are four wins away from becoming just the second franchise to win the Philippine Basketball Association (PBA) Philippine Cup for three consecutive seasons. And the six-foot-10 Fajardo wants to be part of the milestone as the Beermen are in the All-Filipino Cup finals again for the third straight time. We have to play our best (in the finals) to achieve that history,” the 27-year old slotman added. Fajardo had 22 points and 19 rebounds in Game 7 against the Jayson Castro-less TNT squad. Facing elimination in Game 6, Fajardo posted a 20-20 performance (23 points and 21 rebounds), to lead the Beermen to a 104-88 victory to tie the series.
