Splitters often include a grounding lug which serves the purpose just as well as a 'grounding block'.
Ideally there would be no more than 5 feet of coax between the splitter and entry point through the wall. I choose to keep all of the grounding system outside the building when possible. (Some older homes have no ground rod(s) and simply rely on water supply pipe for 'earth ground' in which case there may be no better choice than to connect to the pipe at the same point where the electrical service makes it's ground connection.)
