History was made at the Phillies’ expense on a quiet night in South Philadelphia. It’s only the second no-hitter in World Series history and the third in any postseason game.

That’s all for tonight. Be sure to check out tonight’s game report and join us tomorrow for live coverage of Game 5.

Astros win Game 4 of World Series, 5-0!

Astros 5-0 Phillies, end of ninth inning

Ryan Pressly is into the game as he attempts to polish off a combined no-hitter for Houston.

• Marsh works a 2-2 count but strikes out swinging on a nasty slider.

• Schwarber works a full count, fouls off a curveball, then walks. He’s the first baserunner for the Phillies since the third inning.

• Hoskins comes to the plate with one out and a runner on first. He swings at a 2-1 pitch but pops it up into right field near the line.

• Realmuto is the last chance to break the no-no ... and he grounds out to third base.

There it is! Only the second no-hitter in World Series history after Don Larsen in 1956.
