Vic Darensbourg was a relief pitcher for the Detroit Tigers. In 2005 he struck out 9 batters over 22.1 innings across 22 appearances, going 1-1. His ERA of 2.82 was 34.3% lower than the league average of 4.29 — the second best on his team, and 66th of 442 among MLB pitchers with 20+ innings. Stripping out defence, his 4.32 FIP suggests that his ERA had some help behind him. He missed bats on 15.5% of swings (7.2% of every pitch he threw), walked 7.3% of the batters he faced and struck out 9.4%. His 0.1 dbWAR is built from that FIP rather than runs allowed, so it credits him for what he controls and not for the defence behind him.

Not in the 2005 data: pitch types, recorded in every park from 2008. The play-by-play goes back to 2005, but the measurements on each pitch and batted ball arrived later, so the panels built from them are left off this season.
