ERA is the abbreviation for "Earned Run Average".It's a statistic associated with pitchers only whereby their performance is measured by the following formula:
total # of earned runs allowed divided by total # of innings pitched; multiply by 9. The lower the average, the higher a pitcher is rated. Personally, I think whether they are a starting pitcher or a reliever also plays a little bit into rating their performance. Your much more likely to see a lower ERA on say a closer than you would a starter. Why? Less innings pitched. Plain and simple.
