I've been to many Phillies games, both at Veterans Stadium, which opened in 1971, and the new ballpark, Citizens Bank Park, which opened in 2004. I have also seen a spring training game in Clearwater Florida, as well as a regular season Phillies game when they played the Pirates in Pittsburg, and I saw the last game played in JFK Stadium in Washington DC, Between the Phils and the Nationals.

I also saw The Reading Phillies (their AA minor league affiliate) Play the Trenton Thunder (the Yankees' double A team) in Trenton, NJ. When my brother and I visited Toronto back in the early 2000's, we went to a Blue Jays game while we were there. Ironically, on the same trip, We stayed overnight in Buffalo NY, and ate lunch at the Bar that claims to have served the original Buffalo wings, which was across the street from the home of the minor league Buffalo Bisons, and we noticed that a game was being played. We didn't realize until after the fact that they were playing the Phillies' Triple A team, or we surely would have attended!
