Well, they have something called ERA- , which adjusts to the league and for park effects.  This was the result, again, for pennant winners:

If you're wondering (I sure was), the Nationals' ERA- is 81, third lowest in MLB.  Lower being better.

Oops, made a mistake with my data.  Fixed.  I knew the Rangers had to be wrong.  Changed it to after 1920, because the list was still dominated by older years.

Thanks again :clap: props to you. Have fun playing with the data. If I have any more strange requests I'll be sure to post 'em here.

And when I was talking about ERA+ - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adjusted_ERA%2B Never heard of ERA- but seems like the same thing.
