Johan Santana vs. Cleveland

Posted by Andy on August 30, 2007

Last night, Santana lost his fourth game against Cleveland this year.

If you go to his splits page, you can see his data against Cleveland this season:

G:    5
IP:  33
ER:  15
ERA:  4.09
H:   30
BB:   6
K:   40
W:    0
L:    4

Those numbers don't look so bad (especially the K/BB) until you look at the rest of his numbers in 2007 against all other teams:

G:   23
IP: 155
ER:  49
ERA:  2.85
H:  126
BB:  35
K:  160
W:   14
L:    6

It's sort of crazy that he has a WHIP of 1.09 vs. Cleveland but still comes out with a 4.09 ERA. There must have been a few timely hits in there.
