Class A baseball in Roseville, Minnesota

Stumpgrinders. Not an animal, not a bird, not a sponsor: a piece of landscaping equipment. Somebody in Shoreview looked at the available mascots, rejected every one of them, and went with the machine that removes tree stumps. It is the best name in this directory after the Trash Pandas and it is the only one that comes with a rental agreement.

Twenty-five defeats in twenty-nine games is the most losses anywhere in this set, ahead of Montrose-Waverly's twenty-four. Doing it in the Metro Minny, which is the deepest division the association runs, is the hardest possible way to arrive at that number.

Sixty-two classification points, against a hundred and eighty-eight at Champlin Park and a hundred and fourteen at Coon Rapids in the same league.

The club is named Shoreview and plays in Roseville, two adjacent Ramsey County suburbs.

Named after the machine that removes tree stumps, and twenty-five defeats in the deepest league in Minnesota. High Cheese gives Shoreview the page where the name outlives the record.
