After six months of battling back from a devastating injury, Kyle Schwarber drove in two runs to help his team earn a 5-1 victory over the Cleveland Indians in Game 2 of the World Series on Wednesday.
The dominant performance from the 23-year-old – who relearned to walk mere months ago – inspired inspired awe and admiration from Cubs fans everywhere but perhaps no one appreciated the effort more than 10-year-old Arizona boy, Campbell Faulkner.
That’s because Schwarber did it all while wearing a bright green ”Campbell’s Crew” wristband to honor his deep bond with Campbell and bring awareness to his rare form of mitochondrial disease.
