Pitching stats are a set of statistics used to measure the performance of pitchers in baseball. The four stats included in this term are WINS (4 letters), earned run average (ERA, 3 letters), saves (5 letters), and adjusted runs allowed (ADRATES, 7 letters). WINS refer to the number of games won by a pitcher, ERA is the average number of earned runs allowed by a pitcher per nine innings pitched, saves indicate the number of games in which a pitcher finishes the game and preserves a win for his team, and ADRATES is the number of runs allowed by a pitcher adjusted for the ballpark and league average.
