My suggestion would be to use a zoom lens with as much reach as you can afford. Shooting Philadelphia Phillies fans, in daylight won't be a problem with a zoom. Most reasonably priced zooms will be fast enough to do that. Shooting at night games, lighting will be a problem without flash. The 18-105mm VR Nikkor should do the job. A 55-200mm would be better.
