. . . weather-permitting, obviously.
Just a couple of changes from the first game. Kevin Youkilis moves across the diamond to third base while Mike Lowell gets a break. Jeff Bailey, just up from Pawtucket, gets the call at first base and will bat eighth. And Jason Varitek is behind the plate after George Kottaras caught Tim Wakefield per usual in the opener.
