In honour of the end of the baseball regular season
A Scotsman moves to Canada and attends his first baseball game. The first batter
approaches the batters' box, takes a few swings and then hits a double. Everyone is on
their feet screaming "Run!!!" The next batter hits a single. The Scotsman listens as
the crowd again cheers "RUN!! RUN!!"
The Scotsman is enjoying the game and begins screaming with the fans. The fifth batter
comes up and four balls go by. The Umpire calls: "Walk." The batter starts his slow
trot to first base. The Scot stands up and screams, "Run ye lazy bastard rrrun!" The
people around him begin laughing. Embarrassed, the Scot sits back down.
A friendly fan notes the man's embarrassment, leans over and explains, "He can't run --
he has four balls." The Scot stands up and screams: "Walk with pride, Laddie!"
