An Irishman moves to the USA and finally attends his first baseball game.
The first batter approached the batters box, took a few swings and then hit
a double. Everyone was on their feet screaming "Run, Run." The next batter
hit a single and the Irishman listened as the crowd again cheered "RUN,
RUN." The Irishman enjoyed the game and began screaming with the fans. The
fifth batter came up and four balls went by. The umpire called "walk" and
the batter started his slow trot to first base. The Irishman stood up and
screamed, "R-R-Run ye busturd, run! The people around him began laughing.
Embarrassed, the Irishman sat back down. A friendly fan noted the man's
embarrassment, leaned over explained, "He can't run, he's got four balls."
The Irishman stood up and screamed, "Walk with pride, laddie, walk with
pride."
