*An Irishman's First Baseball Game*
An Irishman moves to the USA and attends his first baseball game.
The first batter approached the batter's box, took a few swings and
then hits a double. Everyone was on their feet screaming, 'Run! Run!'
The next batter hits 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 lazy bastard,
run!' The 20 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!'
