The Ironmen (4-6) are holding onto the third spot in the five-team senior circuit after falling 4-3 to the two-time defending champs, the Charlottetown Gaudet’s Auto Body Islanders, on Thursday at Ironmen Field after edging the Moncton Dixie Lee Mets 3-2 on Wednesday at Kiwanis Park.

Chatham also dropped both games of a home doubleheader on June 14 against the Saint John AJ’s Alpines, suffering 4-2 and 4-3 setbacks, after beating the Fredericton Simpson Royals 8-1 on Friday the 13th at Royals Field.
