RUN RUN 

An Irishman moves to the USA and 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 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, 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, took a long breath and screamed, "Walk with pride, 
lad!"
