ANTIPOLO--Ginebra mauled Mahindra, 104-86, in the nightcap of the PBA Commissioner's Cup doubleheader at the Ynares Center on Wednesday.
The Barangay opened the game on an 11-0 run and never looked back despite some mini-spurts from the Enforcers to get their third straight win after a 0-2 start, eventually tying their victims in the team standings.
Othyus Jeffers fired 24 points, 13 rebounds, and seven assists for Ginebra, which just broke out from a packed middle part of the team standings.
KG Canaleta tallied 22 markers, four boards, one dime, and one block for Mahindra, which conceded its hold of second place to Philippine Cup finalists Alaska and San Miguel, a 108-96 winner over Blackwater earlier Wednesday.
