The Charlottetown Islanders didn't get the result that they wanted at the Canadian Championships this year in Miramichi, NB but they will now have a chance at another title next season after winning the New Brunswick Sr Baseball League Championship over the reigning national champion Chatham Ironmen in mid September. 

The Islanders had another very strong run though the playoffs as they went a combined 8 - 1 overall leading to their 4th straight league title. Their playoff run started against the Fredericton Royals as they opened the series at historic Royals Field in Marysville, NB with a 6 - 2 victory. LHP Tanner MacLean went the distance for the win while Jackson Wilson took the loss in relief of Shane Sullivan. Logan Gallant (2 RBI), Duncan Picketts (RBI) and Simon Dubois each had a pair of hits to lead the Isles offense. 

In game two, six strong innings from LHP Brody MacDonald lead to a 6 - 1 Charlottetown win at Memorial Field. RHP Colby Lyle started and took the loss going 5 2/3 innings. Simon Dubois had a perfect 3-for-3 night at the plate with an RBI while Josh Myers (RBI), Dylan Worth and Jack Kraft each had two hits. Game three saw the Royals offense finally kick into gear a bit but the Islanders were just as hot with a 12 - 5 victory. Nathan Van Putten went six innings for the win while LHP Josh Dennis took the loss. Josh Myers (4 RBI) and Duncan Picketts (3 RBI) each had a home run to lead the Charlottetown offense.

The Isles closed out the series in four straight with a narrow 2 - 1 victory back on the island in game four. RHP Jordan Stevenson went the distance to pick up the win on the mound. Shane Sullivan, with his second quality start of the series, took the loss. Josh Myers (RBI) and Duncan Picketts each continued their hot series with a pair of hits to lead the Charlottetown offense. 

The win sent the Islanders back into the league final to face the Chatham Ironmen who advanced with a tough seven game series win over the Moncton Mets who gave the Ironmen everything they could handle in a very entertaining series. In game one, it was a pitchers duel which saw the Isles prevail 3 - 1 with Tanner MacLean going 6 2/3 innings for the win and Nathan Van Putten grabbing the save. RHP Julio Hernandez took the tough loss in a complete game effort for Chatham. Sinon Dubois had a pair of hits while Logan Gallant had a pair of RBIs and Dylan Worth a home run to lead the Charlottetown offense. 

In game two, Jordan Stevenson went six strong innings for the win and Nathan Van Putten had a clean seventh inning for a 4 - 0 win. Nick Leggatt was tagged with the tough loss for the Ironmen in a complete game effort. Josh Myers had a pair of hits and two RBIs while Logan Gallant and Dylan Worth each had a hit for the Isles. In game three back in Chatham, the Ironmen were able to get on the board with a convincing 5 - 2 win to cut the series lead for the Isles to 2 - 1. RHP Zach Gosse picked up the win in relief of import Jay Miller who had to exit after 3 1/3 inning with an injury. Julio Hernandez grabbed the save with Nathan Van Putten taking the loss in relief of starter Brody MacDonald. Kris Keating had a 2-run home run while Mike McKay, Tyler McKay and Nick Leggatt each had a pair of hits for the Ironmen. 

The series shifted back to Memorial Field on the Island for game four and it was Ethan Smith who gave the Isles a strong performance on the mound with a 6 - 3 Charlottetown victory. Jamie Walls took the loss for Chatham on the hill. At the plate, it was Josh Myers with three hits and an RBI and Logan MacDougall with two hits who led the offense for the Islanders. Back in Chatham, the Isles were able to wrap up the series with a 6 - 2 win with Tanner MacLean grabbing the win with five strong innings and Jordan Stevenson picked up the two inning save. Julio Hernandez started and took the loss for the Ironmen. Dylan Worth (3 RBI) and Josh Myers each had a home run to lead the Islanders offense.

With the win, the Chalrottetown club will now prepare as they have punched their ticket to the 2027 Canadian Men's Baseball Championship in Edmonton, Alberta which will be hosted by the Edmonton Cubs of the Sunburst Baseball League at beautiful RE/MAX Field. Congrats to Doug Hines, Mark Arsenault, JP Stevenson and the whole Islanders organization on another excellent run in the New Brunswick Senior Baseball League this summer.
