Holy. fricking. shite.
Literally every pitching stat is normalized per inning for this exact reason.

That’s hilarious. Guy is trying to say others don’t know baseball while he’s calling 4 2/3 inning 5 runs 3 walks and 2 errors a good outing.

I’m talking about this game not your statistical averages. This game he gave up 5 runs and you said he gave up 10. 5 runs is a fact, your theoretical outcome did not happen.

I said he allowed more than their average because any knowledgeable fan knows that allowing 5 runs in 4.2 innings is more than Tennessee’s per inning average.

Against the top team in the country literally the best offense?? You are just dumb, it’s not that you aren’t easily impressed, you just can’t understand how impressive that is

I know how to determine ERA but you seem to be incapable of actually seeing reality. He gave up 5 runs not 10, he was pulled and was never going to pitch a complete game so what you’re arguing is totally irrelevant. There have been 0 runs scored, not “9.6”, since and we’re in the 9th inning. You’re an idiot

Another dipshit. You morons attack like a hive on the spectrum.

He's talking about earned run average, genius. You don't say a guy held a team below their average, when you don't pitch the entire game. How many pitchers do you suppose came in and gave up 9 runs before being pulled? Floyd gave up runs tonight at a rate that comes out to higher than the Vols' average.
Understand now? Maybe do the math before insulting other people's intelligence.

So you’re actually serious. Wow.
Leave it to this board to argue legitimate, indisputable facts.

Oh look the final score is 9.6 to 2….. oh wait this is reality, it’s actually 5-2.

Viet held them well below their average. Duh.

They don’t put era on the scoreboard retard they put runs. Tennessee scored 5 runs, Floyd didn’t give up 9.6 runs and didn’t pitch 9 innings. This is what I meant earlier, you people are fricking morons.

“Viet held them well below their average. Duh.”
Exactly, Floyd didn’t pitch 9 innings and was never going to. You keep pushing a projection based on ERA which means absolutely nothing because the scoreboard actually determines the outcome.

Madking, you are wrong, and Slackster is right. The Vols average about 9 runs per game, which is one run per inning, and that’s about what Floyd held them to. Therefore, based only on that, Floyd was about average. That’s not going to beat the Vols unless the offense does waaay better than average.

I'm not sure you know what reality is.
quote:

He pitched 4.2 innings, not 9. No pitcher gives up up all of Tennessee's runs by himself. Somebody has a bad start, and then the bullpen comes in and gives up the rest. You don't say that the starter did well because he gave up less than the total runs scored in the game. That's incredibly dumb logic.
quote:

He was pulled in the fifth inning, because he wasn't good enough to go deep. That's quite relevant.
quote:

That means the bullpen held them under their average. Floyd doesn't get to take credit for their success. Are you sure you're being serious?

That you would have the nerve to call me this, after your display of ignorance, is truly astounding.

Nope, and scoring 2 runs vs good teams isn’t going to get you anywhere.
Posted on 5/28/22 at 1:34 am to Metaloctopus
The outcome of games isn’t based on ERA it’s based on runs. Floyd didn’t throw 9 innings, was never going to throw 9 innings and didn’t give up 10 runs. Those are the facts, his era projected over innings he didn’t throw means nothing.
