Kyle Schwarber on Houston Astros' combined no-hitter: "I really don't give a s***"

World Series - Houston Astros v Philadelphia Phillies - Game Four
Philadelphia Phillies slugger Kyle Schwarber

Philadelphia Phillies All-Star Kyle Schwarber is known as a gritty competitor. The slugger went 0-for-3 with a walk in Game 4 of the World Series, wherein the Houston Astros pitching crew threw a combined no-hitter at Citizens Bank Park. It was just the second-ever World Series no-hitter and the second postseason no-hitter at Citizens Bank Park.

Upon being asked how he felt about Houston blanking his team, Schwarber replied in the most nonchalant way but didn't hold back with his words.

He said:

"I really don't give a s***"

The only way the Philadelphia Phillies reached any base in the game was through Cristian Javier's two walks. One to Bryce Harper and the other to Brandon Marsh. Astros closer Ryan Pressly gave a walk to Schwarber in the ninth inning.

Despite his nonchalant attitude towards opposition teams, Schwarber's grit, tenacity, and dedication to his team and its fanbase makes him a valuable piece for every organization he plays for.

The slugger just arrived in Philadelphia this year but has quickly earned the trust and support of raucous Phillies fans. With his National League-leading 46 regular-season home runs, he has powered the Phillies offense, especially during times when they were on the backfoot.

MLB personality Jared Carrabis described in a tweet that a player like Schwarber would be beloved by the fanbase even after he leaves a team due to his take-no-prisoners attitude approach to the game.
