Blogging about the 5x NL East Champion Phillies
by Dan MacNeal, DN This is the third part of an ongoing series, first being in Washington, second in Philadelphia. As I walked the lower level concourse of Yankee Stadium, I was very disappointed to see not one nacho stand. Somehow, noodles and sushi were available on the concourse. John found a burrito stand, but it did … Continue reading Nacho Report: New York (A)
By Dan MacNeal First broken by Meech over at the Fightins, MLB has moved the June 25-27 series between the Phils and the Blue Jays from Toronto to Philadelphia. It was officially announced this afternoon that the three game set will be played in Philadelphia, while Toronto remains the “home” team, batting last and using … Continue reading Canadians for a Weekend, eh?
By Dan MacNeal As a new segment on Team to Beat, I’ll be profiling former Phillies who are still active in MLB. This week, facing the Braves, we’ll be focusing on Billy Wagner. After the Phillies traded for (at the time) a three-time All Star closer, the Phils bullpen looked stronger with the lefty fireballer … Continue reading Phormer Phils: Billy Wagner
by Dan MacNeal, DN This is the second part of an ongoing series of Nacho Reports, first part being in Washington. Seeing as it is Cinco de Mayo today, this report fits in with the nachos I had at last night’s Phillies-Cardinals game. Going into the game I had an idea of what to expect, … Continue reading Nacho Report: Philly
By Dan MacNeal Don’t act like a moron. That’s all I (and 44,000+ others) ask. We all heard the story last week about the guy who puked on the father and daughter. A couple idiots had to get so bombed that they don’t even know what they are doing and end up ruining a game for the … Continue reading A Plea to All Fans

According to Ruben Amaro, he will miss two to four weeks with his injury. Amaro said: We believe it to be a mild to moderate strain and … Continue reading Rollins Headed to DL
by Dan MacNeal Could it have been a better day for the home opener? The sun was shining, the smell of grilled hamburgers was in the air, and the fans were pumped. The area around Citizens Bank Park was like a zoo, with Mr. Greengenes playing on Citizens Bank Way and various local radio and … Continue reading The (2nd) Home Opener
by Dan MacNeal As many of you know, I enjoy a good nacho plate. And there’s no better place to get some tasty treats than at a baseball game. I plan to do some travelling to see the Phils in a couple different cities and will have a nacho report for each and every stadium I visit. … Continue reading Nacho Report: Washington
By Dan MacNeal Opening Day is like Christmas for baseball fans. As I watch the Red Sox hosting the Yankees to open the 2010 MLB season, the excitement of the Phillies opening their season tomorrow increases. Especially with Roy Halladay making his official Phillies debut in Washington DC in about 14 hours from now. For … Continue reading Opening Day Memories
By Dan MacNeal Now when I thought of this project, I thought it would be fun to mix and match some guys from different decades and see how this team would come together. Well, during the actual project, I felt it to be like filling out a college basketball pool, with constant changes and updates. … Continue reading All Time Phillies Team….by decade
