While games are scheduled each of those days, Mother Nature could also play a factor in what happens. Thunderstorms are expected each day, and while both fields are all-turf facilities, District 9 baseball chairman Dave Osborne has warned that changes to the baseball schedule could come as soon as Tuesday.
As of Monday night, though, no changes had been made and the schedule was as follows:
