What doesn't make sense about it? BTW, no team should have 12 losses with a sub 2 ERA
The fact that it was considered an error means that it would have been an out if the error wasn't made, thus negating any impact on the pitcher's ERA. There are also the instances where a hit in the outfield could result in an error and that does add a little murkiness to it, but overall, errors don't affect ERA for a reason.

And I completely agree. They shouldn't have 12 losses with a sub 2 ERA, but the system is built that way.

I'm not sure why but my head really hurts after reading that, Scruff
