Kyle Schwarber talked the talk after the Philadelphia Phillies were no-hit in Game 4 of the World Series and now he’s walking the walk.
After the Phillies were embarrassingly no-hit by the Houston Astros, Schwarber gave the most Philadelphia quote of all time in response to being asked about the historic moment. On Thursday, it only took one batter — Schwarber himself — for the Phillies to register a hit and in a big way.
With the Phillies down 1-0 in the bottom of the first, Schwarber tied things up and ensured Philadelphia wouldn’t be no-hit again with a monster solo shot to right field to send fans into a frenzy.

Now that’s one way to silence the critics! The Phillies and their fans really needed a moment like that after Game 4 then going down early in Game 5, but it’s no surprise that Schwarber was the one to deliver the goods after making such a statement the night before.
