From 1910 to 1914, Bushelman pitched mostly in the New England League. He played in six games for the Red Sox as well, but he did not distinguish himself enough to stick in the majors. In total, Bushelman posted a 1–2 record in 26.2 innings pitched in the major leagues. In 1913, he led the NENL in wins, with 26. He retired after the 1915 season.
