The Philadelphia Phillies played their first home game of the season on Monday against the Colorado Rockies, giving fans their first look at some of the new aspects of Citizens Bank Park. While there was far from an overhaul at the Phillies home stadium since 2004, this year’s alterations did go a little bit beyond expanding the ballpark menu.

Phillies fans can expect everything from new food to state-of-the-art technology enhancements at Citizens Bank Park this season.

The Citizens Bank Park crowd did not expect to see Trea Turner get between the white lines for the Philadelphia Phillies in their home opener on Monday.  Now in his third season with the Phillies, the 31-year-old shortstop was held out of the starting lineup for the third straight game due to back spasms.
