Series 8 games reset

Baseball Philippines officials postponed yesterday’s Series 8 games at the Clark Field Parade Grounds in Pampanga due to inclement weather.

Heavy rains brought about by tropical storm “Falcon” forced the league to postpone yesterday’s scheduled games of Manila-Alabang and Cebu-Dumaguete in the league organized by Community Sports Inc. and sponsored by Gatorade and Rawlings.

The games were actually supposed to be played today but field conditions remained unfit for play.

Manila is currently in first place with an 8-1 record but not far behind is Cebu, which sports a 7-2 win-loss card as they play in the sixth out-of-town game day of the league made possible by Victory Liner, Clark Development Corporation, SM City Clark and San Miguel Corporation.

Cebu needs to win against Dumaguete in order to stay alive in the hunt for the top-seed in the semifinals with Manila. But both Manila and Cebu have already clinched the twice-to-beat edge in the semifinals.

The league is also backed by Harbour Centre, The Heritage Park, Emperador Distillers, Philippine Transmarine Carriers, Philippine Sports Commission, Philippine Olympic Committee, Philippine Amateur Baseball Association, Philippine Umpires Association and DZSR Sports Radio 918.
