MANILA, Philippines — Café France pounced on Hog’s Breath Café’s poor shooting to fashion out a convincing 81-58 win in the PBA D-League Aspirants’ Cup Monday at the Trinity University of Asia gym.

The Bakers led wire-to-wire — building a double-digit lead early and padding onto it as the game went on en route to their fourth straight victory.

Mac Montilla had 12 points for Café France, which improved to 7-3.

The Razorbacks shot just 23% from the field — misfiring on their 27 out of 30 attempts from three-point range.

Letran’s Ford Ruaya and Adamson’s Jansen Rios had 12 points each for Hog’s breath, which suffered its second straight setback after winning its first seven games.
