Published/Last Modified on Friday, July 17, 2009 2:08 PM CDT

The Cajun Sting baseball team dropped a 5-3 decision to Eunice to open the American Legion Junior State Tournament at Fontainebleau High School in Mandeville on Thursday.

Velot Khammany’s double off the wall in the sixth inning tied the game at 3-3, but Eunice added a pair of later runs to take the win.

Khamman’s double was the New Iberia Senior High-based team’s only hit.

Eunice had only two hits off Cajun Sting pitchers Tyler Comb and T.J. Jones.

Comb pitched 61⁄3 innings and Jones finished the game for the Cajun Sting.

“They had a good left-hander,” said Cajun Sting coach Josh Delahoussaye. “He threw about 85 and had a real good breaking ball we couldn’t hit.”

The Cajun Sting plays again at 1 p.m. Saturday against an opponent yet to be determined.
