He played in Major League Baseball for the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim, Kansas City Royals (twice), Atlanta Braves, Minnesota Twins, and Chicago White Sox.
It was Santana's first career no-hitter, and the Angels first no-hitter since 1990.
It was also Ervin Santana's first victory against the Cleveland Indians in 11 career starts.
He struck out 10, walked 1, and allowed 1 unearned run.
Santana signed with the Anaheim Angels as an amateur free agent on September 2, 2000.
Santana was born Johan Ramon Santana, and used that name until 2003.
He changed his name to avoid having the same name as Venezuelan pitching star Johan Santana.
According to Santana, "I just came up with Ervin... Ervin Santana, that sounds good."
He was a starting pitcher for the Angels' Double-A affiliate, the Arkansas Travelers early in 2005, where he posted a 5–1 record and 2.31 ERA in 7 starts.
Following an injury to Angels starting pitcher Kelvim Escobar, Santana earned a promotion.
He made his first major league appearance on May 17, 2005, against the Cleveland Indians, in which he gave up the pitching version of the cycle in first four batters that he faced.
In his second start, facing the Chicago White Sox's Jon Garland, (who at the time had the best record in baseball), Santana bested Garland by pitching a complete game shutout.
He gave up only 5 hits and struck out 7 for his first career victory.
Santana then went on the disabled list and was sent back down to the minors to the Angels' Triple-A affiliate, the Salt Lake Bees.

In the 2006 season, he finished with a 16–8 record.
After a disappointing start to the 2007 season where he went 5–11 with a 6.22 ERA, he was optioned to Triple-A Salt Lake Bees on July 18, 2007.
