COLUMBIA — It’s 5:35 p.m. at Field 8 at the Daniel Boone Little League Complex. The Reds take infield practice while the Tigers relax in the dugout. Spectators bask in the shade provided by plaid umbrellas and large trees, discussing piano lessons, boy scout programs and Michael Jackson’s unexpected death.
