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 walk to first base.
The Scot stands up and screams, " Run, ye lazy bastard, run !! "
The people around him begin laughing. Embarrassed, the Scot sits back down.
A friendly fan notes the mans's embarrassment , leans over and explains,
" He can't run---he has four balls. "
The Scot stands up and screams, " Walk with pride Laddie, walk with pride!! "
