Hopefully they play, but I doubt it.

The Red Sox hope the weather forecast (rain, rain, rain) changes on Saturday, otherwise it will be hard to get in the scheduled 7:05 p.m. ET contest against the Rangers.
All manager Terry Francona can do is plan on playing and have contingencies in place in the event there is no game.
"We always try to have a lot of different scenarios," Francona said. "But until we know ... We can't figure the weather out, nobody can."
If there is a game, left-hander Lenny DiNardo will make the start for the Sox, and he will be opposed by fellow southpaw John Koronka.
The Red Sox took two out of three against the Yankees but never got anything going in Friday's 6-0 loss to the Rangers, which was shortened by rain with no outs in the bottom of the sixth.
"You have to get up for every game or you're going to fail," said first baseman Kevin Youkilis. "You can't get up because it's the Yankees or the Rangers. You have to be up for everyone."
The Sox just hope they have some games to get up for this weekend.
