A Scottish tourist at his first baseball game...
A Scottish tourist attended his first baseball game in the US and after a
base hit he hears the fans roaring "Run....Run!"
The next batter connects
heavily with the ball and the Scotsman stands up and roars with the crowd in his
thick accent: "R-r-run ya bahstard, r-run will ya!"
A third batter hits a slam and again the Scotsman, obviously pleased with his
knowledge of the game, screams "R-r-run ya bahstard, r-r-run will ya!"
The next batter steadfastly holds his swing four times and as the ump calls a
walk the Scotsman stands up and yells "R-r-run ya bahstard, r-r-run!"
All the surrounding fans giggle quietly and he sits down confused. A friendly
fan, sensing his embarrassment, whispers to the Scotsman, "He doesn't have to
run, he's got four balls."
After this explanation the Scotsman stands up in disbelief and screams, "Walk
with pr-r-ride man! Walk with pr-r-ride!!!!"
