Citizens Bank Park is the brand new home of the Philadelphia Phillies. After 30 + years of playing in Veterans Stadium, anything would be an upgrade. The "retro" park was built on almost the same spot as The Vet. Unlike the other "retro" parks that were built downtown, CBP was built in a complex with other stadiums and arenas, plus the city skyline is a good 10 miles away. The park has entrances on the first base side, the third base side and the outfield. You are greeted at each gate by a statue of a phormer Phillie great. If you enter from the outfield you see that days starting lineup displayed via huge baseball cards. When entering from either base side you enter onto the field level. Out in right field is Greg Luzinski's "Bulls Bar-B-Que Pit".
Staduim Rating : A-
