A Scotsman... newly immigrated to the U.S. wants to immerse himself in American life, so he goes to a baseball game. He has no clue how it's played, but every time the batter takes off for first base all the people around him yell, ""Run! Run!"" So he stands up and yells, ""Rrrrun, laddie! Rrrrun!"" In the fourth inning a batter gets walked. When the umpire calls ball four he tosses the bat aside and starts ambling toward first at a leisurely pace. The Scotsman jumps up and yells, ""Rrrrun, laddie! Rrrrun!"" but the guy sitting next to him nudges him and says, ""No, no, he's got four balls, he gets to walk."" The Scotsman says, ""Four balls?"" He looks back out at the player, raises his fist and intones, ""Walk prrrroud, laddie! Walk PRRROUD!""
