Cebu, Manila batters try to firm up hold of lead
THE Cebu Dolphins and the Manila Sharks will try to keep their winning rolls going as they take on separate rivals in the Baseball Philippine Series 8 today at the Rizal Memorial Baseball Stadium.
The Dolphins face the Taguig Patriots (1-2) in the 9 a.m. opener while the three-peat seeking Sharks are heavily favored against the winless Dumaguete Uni-bikers in their 1 p.m. encounter.
Cebu and Manila are pacing Series 8 so far with identical 5-1 (win-loss) cards, three games ahead of third-placer Batangas Bulls.
The Patriots are coming off a big 12-3 rout of the Uni-bikers in an out-of-town game in barangay Banlic in Cabuyao, Laguna recently.
The Sharks, meanwhile, will be taking on a Dumaguete side hard-pressed to break into the scoring column after dropping their first two matches. Correspondent Jonas Panerio
