An Irishman moves to the USA &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 &the Irishman listened as the crowd again cheered "RUN, RUN".
The Irishman enjoyed the game &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 bastard, run!" The people around him began laughing.
Embarrassed, the Irishman sat back down. A friendly fan noted the man's
embarrassment, leaned over and explained "He can't run - he's got four
balls. The Irishman stood up and screamed, "Walk with pride, lad."
