Most of today was spent in the car driving through Massachusetts, Connecticut, and New Jersey on our way to Philadelphia. We drove straight to the game and found parking in the stadium lot to the be the cheapest so far; only $15!!
Citizens Bank Ballpark is pretty new, so it was very similar to Citi Park in New York and PNC Park in Pittsburgh. Not as many food choices, but still a good variety.
We had to buy our tickets on Stub Hub because the Phillies sell out all their games. Usually, even when a game is sold out, there are a lot of empty seats, but we were surprised to see most seats filled.
Whenever a player hits a homerun, the “Liberty Bell” lights up and dings.
Tonight’s game was quick--it was shorter than last night’s rain delay in Boston! It was a pretty exciting game for the Phillies though. We saw 5 homeruns, 4 by the Phillies and 1 by the Giants (scored by Aaron Rowand who used to play for the White Sox). One of those homeruns, hit by Chase Utley, was especially exciting. It was an inside the park homerun, which is a rare thing to see!!
We had to get a Philly cheesesteak sandwich!
