After delivering a memorable one-liner dismissing the Phillies’ hitless Game 4 performance, Kyle Schwarber needed all but two pitches to prevent history from repeating itself in Game 5.
Philadelphia’s 5–0 loss tied the World Series, 2-2, Wednesday and earned a spot in the record books as just the third no-hitter in MLB postseason history. After the game, a clearly unfazed Schwarber told reporters, “I really don’t give a s---,” when asked how he felt about what transpired.
On Thursday night, in front of a raucous Citizens Bank Park crowd, the All-Star slugger showed exactly how much the historic "L" didn’t bother him with a cold-blooded 358-foot home run in the second inning off Astros pitcher Justin Verlander.
