Marcio's Late,Game,Triple Seals

Marcio Lassiter buried what proved to be the game-winning triple with 13.2 seconds to go as San Miguel Beer nosed out Meralco, 95-94, to steal Game 2 and tie their PBA Philippine Cup best-of-seven title series at 1-1 on Friday at the Smart Araneta Coliseum in Quezon City.

After missing six of his first seven attempts from the floor, Lassiter delivered when it mattered most.Chris Banchero, who earlier gave the Bolts a four-point lead following a triple, split his foul shots for a 94-92 count.Sensing an opening, the 37-year-old Lassiter, who is currently No. 3 in the league's all-time three-point shots made, shook Bong Quinto off with a fake in the next play, before burying the cold-blooded triple to give the Beermen the lead for good.

2 to go that gave Meralco another chance to win the game, but Quinto was whistled for a traveling violation in the next play, sealing the Bolts' doom in the process.In a game marked by 12 lead changes and nine deadlocks, San Miguel managed to keep its head above water by forcing Meralco to 17 turnovers, which the Beermen converted into 26 points.Perez finished the game with a playoffs career-best 34 points.
