ANGELES CITY - TnT active consultant Mark Dickel is recovering from a severe eye allergy, the reason he had to wear shades during the team's 100-95 win over Alaska in the restart of the PBA Philippine Cup on Sunday.
Team manager Gabby Cui disclosed Dickel need the shades to protect his eyes.
"His eyes are sensitive to light so he needs to wear shades to protect and recover," said Cui after the game.
"Parang si Corey Hart lang," added the TnT official in jest, referring to the 80s pop singer who popularized the ditty Sunglasses at Night.
Despite the discomfort, Dickel obviously liked what he saw on this night as the Tropang Giga pulled off the victory anchored on the career-high 45 points of Roger Pogoy.
