Quantifying Quantrill

Cal Quantrill and the Guardians bullpen combine for a one-hitter against the Twins, Cleveland taking the game 2-0. Quantrill came into the contest with a 4.73 ERA, and his seven shutout innings lowered that to 3.89. He did not allow the hit until the seventh inning.

Quantrill struck out just four batters, allowing the Guardians infield defense to scoop up a dozen ground outs. Coming into this game, the percentage of balls in play on the ground was down from his career norms, which may be why his ERA was up.
