	The Greatness of Nolan Ryan \| BaseballLibrary.com
		In 1972, he set the single season record by allowing only 5.26 hits per nine innings while winning 19 games and posting a 2.28 ERA, as well as a league-leading 329 strikeouts.
		A pitcher is going to have to average over a strikeout per inning and develop a workout regimen that would enable him to maintain his style of pitching throughout his career and stay healthy enough to avoid arm injuries and long stints on the disabled list.
		When you consider his 5,714 strikeouts, 7 no-hitters, 53 major league pitching records, 300 strikeout seasons, opponent batting average, and hits allowed per nine innings, Nolan Ryan was one of the top 10 greatest pitchers in the history of the game.

	The 2003 Kerry's Piñata Award
		Of those throwing at least 180 innings in 2003, Johnson had the second worst baserunners per nine innings (BR/9) mark in all of major league baseball (14.52) and was the worst among AL qualifiers.
		He was ninth in hits per nine innings (10.25 H/9) and tenth in walks per nine innings (3.8 BB/9) among 180+ IP big leaguers.
		In fact--and this really cemented the decision to give Daal the trophy--no big league pitcher with at least 90 innings pitched has allowed as many hits per nine innings in a season as Daal did in 2003 since 1980 when both Mike Parrot and Ed Figueroa were worse.

		Even manager Joe Torre, who admitted the first inning was pretty ugly, said that the loss to the A’s was “a step in the right direction.” And Johnson himself didn’t think there is anything wrong with the state of his health or his psyche.
		His hits allowed per nine innings were up dramatically from 2004, as was his earned run average.
		Only once in a career that began in Montreal in 1988 has he given up more hits than he has innings pitched, and that was in 2003 when he was injured; this year, he’s pitched 52 innings and surrendered 54 hits.

	Rob Neyer
		For example, all pitchers in major league history with 9.00 to 9.99 hits per nine innings made 136,388 starts before 2003, not counting those by pitchers with less than 10 career starts.
		The most improbable pitcher to have thrown a no-hitter, given his hits allowed rate, was Bill Hawke, who allowed 10.63 hits per nine innings, which creates a 1-in-5,594 chance of throwing a no-hitter in any one start.
		The two pitchers who threw more than three no-hitters (Ryan and Koufax) are also, by a weird coincidence, the two pitchers in history who have the lowest ratios of hits per nine innings.

	Scout.com: Mariners Minor League Players of the Month
		The 18-year-old led all system starters for the month with 38.1 innings pitched, but most impressive were the last three starts before his promotion, when he had a 0.84 ERA and held batters to a.160 average.
		He went eight innings in both, scattering four hits and two walks with nine strikeouts against Clinton on the June 20 and he was even more aggressive against Dayton on the June 28; spreading out another four hits, walking one, and striking out 15, the most of any starter for the month.
		While the peripherals of nine walks against 17 strikeouts could be cause for concern, the 23-year-old seems to know how to pitch when it counts, and helps give stability to a shaky Missions' bullpen.

		Opposing batters are hitting an alarming.294, and his 4.32 earned-run average is the second highest of his career.
		As Percival has said, pitching the ninth inning is different than pitching the eighth, and it may be Rodriguez won't be put to the closer test until 2005, but one thing seems certain in that regard:

		This time he outdueled Bartolo Colon (6-3), who allowed three hits in his first six innings before Everett's 21st homer, and RBI singles in the eighth by Brian Daubach and Mike Stanley.

		He posted a 6.39 ERA; he walked 5.3 batter per nine innings (a horrible mark on a team that had all kinds of control problems), he allowed 12 home runs in 74.2 innings.
		Matt Riley posted a 5.63 ERA, allowed 11 home runs in 64 IP and walked 6.19 men per nine innings but he allowed fewer hits than innings pitched and, let's face it, there were better candidates.

	Statistics Used
		The number of hits, walks and strikeouts the pitcher recorded during the appropriate year in the majors affects each batter's chances against him.
		For example, a hitter will hit a lot better in Scoresheet against a pitcher who gave up 10 hits per 9 innings than he will against a pitcher who only gave up 7 hits per nine innings that year.
		We use a pitcher's ERA (and to a much lesser extent his W-L record) to determine when he gives up the hit, as well as whether it is an extra base hit.

	The Machine -- The Hardball Times (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-23)
		While giving up 12 homers in 112.1 innings is actually pretty good, that is definitely the one chink in Santana's armor, although that sort of comes along with the territory when you're an extreme fly ball pitcher in the Metrodome.
		While Santana is blowing away the competition in strikeouts per nine innings, he's got a little work to do to be atop the Twins' leaderboard for hits per nine innings...
		Because Santana combines not giving up many hits with also having very good control (he has walked 2.3/9 IP this year, whereas Boswell walked 4.3/9 IP), he is on pace to set a Twins record for fewest baserunners allowed per nine innings...
