For just the second time in World Series history, we have a no-hitter.
The Astros used four pitchers to no-hit the Phillies in Game 4’s 5–0 win on Wednesday, becoming just the third no-hitter in MLB postseason history. It’s the first since Roy Halladay threw a no-no during the 2010 NLDS against the Reds, which coincidentally also occurred at Citizens Bank Park.
Cristian Javier started the game for Houston and was untouchable, striking out nine batters with just two walks over six innings. Manager Dusty Baker pulled him after 97 pitches, giving way to Bryan Abreu, Rafael Montero and Ryan Pressly, who each worked an inning.
