A Scotsman's First Baseball Game

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, run!"  
 
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!"
