Schwarschild found his solution to Einstein's field equations for vacuum ($T_{\mu \nu}=0$) by placing a point-mass in the center of origin.
Since the Ricci tensor $R_{\mu \nu}$ and the Einstein tensor $G_{\mu \nu}$ are trace-reversed, meaning they vanish identically:
Which point of a universe with a mass in it would meet this equation: $R_{\mu \nu}=0$ (and therefore $G_{\mu \nu}=0$)?
(to make sure, infinity is not a point, i.e. if gravity is infinite than you can't find a particular point, where it vanishes down to zero due to distance)
