Video Boards
In 2004 and 2005, Citizens Bank Park installed Daktronics video and message display in the park. One of the largest incandescent displays in Major League Baseball was installed in left field that was used as a scoreboard and for giving statistics. There are also out-of-town field-level displays installed in the park that measure approximately 10 feet high by 25 feet wide. During the 2010–2011 offseason, the Phillies replaced their incandescent scoreboard with a new HD scoreboard that cost $10 million. The new screen measures 76 feet (23 m) high and 97 feet (30 m) wide, which nearly triples the size of the old screen, and is the largest HD screen in the National League.

Famous quotes containing the words video and/or boards:
“These people figured video was the Lord’s preferred means of communicating, the screen itself a kind of perpetually burning bush. “He’s in the de-tails,” Sublett had said once. “You gotta watch for Him close.””
—William Gibson (b. 1948)
“These doorsteps seldom have a visitor.
The warping boards pull out their own old nails
With none to tread and put them in their place.”
—Robert Frost (1874–1963)
