Giving up HRs and not striking anyone out
Logan Allen gave up 22 home runs in his 20 starts this year, but only struck out 79 batters. It’s relatively rare for a starter to have fewer than four times as many strikeouts as homers allowed.
Over the last 20 seasons, here are the others to fall below that threshold with at least 20 starts.
