Shumski will return to the dog squad from Minnesota State University Mankato following his junior season.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Shumski is not new to the area; he grew up in Mankato and decided to stay here to live out his collegiate career. In his 2024 career at MNSU, Shumski appeared in 12 games, won 3 games, pitched 16 innings, had 13 strikeouts, and faced 76 batters. He ended that season with a 6.19 ERA. Even with the 2025 season just starting, Shumski already has tallied himself an appearance, and we cannot wait for more!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">This will be Shumski\u2019s 3rd season with the MoonDogs as he played in 2023 and 2024. Both seasons for Shumski are notable as he faced 345 total batters in the two seasons! In 2023, Shumski played in 9 games, pitched 20.2 innings, had 16 strikeouts, and an ending ERA of 4.35. His 2024 season was huge as he played in 22 games of which 4 were wins, 2 losses, and 3 saves. Shumski had 53.2 innings pitched, 27 strikeouts, and an ending ERA of 5.03! Out of the 345 batters faced in total, 251 of them came from his 2024 season with the MoonDogs. Shumski\u2019s WHIP has stayed consistent with the dog squad with 1.45 and 1.53.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Coach Danny Kneeland is excited to have a familiar arm back on the mound for the MoonDogs as he says \u201cExcited to have Tanner back with us for his 3rd summer. He\u2019s been successful in multiple roles for us and is always ready to compete.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Shumski is ready to be a dog again and talks about what the MoonDogs means to him, as he says; \u201cI\u2019m super excited to be joining the MoonDogs for my 3rd season, and look forward to seeing all the fans at ISG. It means a lot to be able to represent the Mankato MoonDogs being from Mankato, I have always wanted to play for Mankato, and it\u2019s been a blessing to be able to do that!\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">If you want to see Shumski and the rest of the MoonDog squad this summer, come out to the ISG field or get your tickets online at <\/span><a href=\"http:\/\/www.mankatomoondogs.com\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">www.mankatomoondogs.com<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> or call the office at 507-625-7047!<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><em>###<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><em>\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><em>The Northwoods League is the proven leader in the development of elite college baseball players.
