J.T. Realmuto, Bryce Harper and Nick Castellanos all struck out swinging in the fourth...
Houston Astros starting pitcher Cristian Javier delivers in the fourth inning during Game 4 of the World Series at Citizens Bank Park on Wednesday, Nov. 2, 2022, in Philadelphia.PHILADELPHIA — Facing a trio of Phillies hitters whose strengths matched his own, Cristian Javier bet on himself and waged a war on the strike zone with his favorite weapon.
Javier’s masterful fourth inning was a highlight of the six frames he pitched as the Astros no-hit the Phillies in a 5-0 victory in Game 4 of the World Series on Wednesday night.

I thought that my fastball today was really good and definitely I was able to get a lot of swings and misses.”
