I believe the answer is Tim Keefe, who had a 0.86 ERA in 1880. If you're looking for modern history, it would be Greg Maddux, with a season ERA of 1.56 in 1994.
Bob Gibson of the St Louis Cardinals went won 22 games against 9 losses with a 1.12 era in 1968. The following year, the mound was lowered. In 1985 Dwight Gooden won 24 games against only 4 losses, 268 strikeouts, 16 complete games and a 1.53 era for one of Baseball's most statistically dominant seasons. The redoubtable Greg Maddux follows closely behind.
Dutch Leonard of the Boston Red Sox in 1914 had an ERA of 1.01, thus being the lowest ERA in modern history. tc
ERA records are questionable, since it depends on the amount of pitching that the pitcher actually performs. Actually, Dennis Eckersley had a 0.61 ERA in 1990. He pitched 63 games, but only 73.1 innings. But 73 innings is enough to establish respectable stats. Nine runs in 73 innings is quite respectable.
