Major League Baseball uses the following formula to calculate a pitcher’s earned run average: ERA = (the number of earned runs x 9)/ the number of innings pitched. So, if a pitcher threw eight innings and gave up 3 runs, his ERA would be 3.38 (3 ER x 9/8). Makes me want to get out there and throw some strikes!
