Nicholas "Nick" Schumacher (born 24 July 1985) is a former professional baseball player who played as a pitcher. Born in the United States, he represented Spain internationally.
After his release from the Padres, Schumacher contacted a former teammate who was playing with the Sioux City Explorers of the American Association of Independent Professional Baseball who convinced the Manager to give him a shot.[3][4] For the 2011 season, he pitched 148.2 innings for the Explorers, a single season record, finishing second in the AA in strikeouts (123) and third in ERA (3.03).[5] At the end of the season he also played in a few games for the York Revolution in the Atlantic League of Professional Baseball.
