I realize that loys of pitchers have had an infinite era, but what's the highest, nominal single game era.
 
Doc Hamann gave up 6 earned runs in 1922. Since he didn't get anybody out his ERA can't be calculated. It is really infinity.

The highest measurable ERA is Joe Cleary in 1945. In a third of an inning, he gave up 7 runs. ERA= 189.
