Artifacts to look for at Citizens Bank Park?

Citizens Bank Park is the home of the Philadelphia Phillies. An outdoor ballpark, primarily used for baseball games with a seating capacity of approximately 42,000. Located in the heart of Philadelphia, about 6 kilometres from the city centre. Behind center field at Citizens Bank Park is Ashburn Alley, an open concourse showcasing Phillies history, restaurants, stores and interactive displays on gameday.

Outside the Citizens Bank Park there are 10-foot-tall bronze statues of Richie Ashburn, Robin Roberts, Steve Carlton, and Mike Schmidt, all members of the National Baseball Hall of Fame in Cooperstown. Mike Schmidt was one of my favorite third baseman of all time and I still remember his dancing around the bases when he hit his famous home run. There is also another statue nearby of Connie Mack, the great Philadelphia A's manager. This was one of the few artifacts taken from the run down Veterans Stadium to bring over to the new park.

Since we had our young girls with us, they were not too interested in the Baseball history of the park, however they did enjoy the Bronze Statues along Ashburn Alley. They did allow me a brief stroll down the Wall of Fame to see the former Greats of the Phillies organization memorialized.
