Deceased, But not forgotton
A visiting Scotsman is attending his first baseball game. Not understanding the game he watched the crowd's reaction as each hitter got to the plate.
He noticed that whenever a batter hit the ball, the crowd cheered and the player ran around the bases. Wanting to join in on the fun, every time a player hit the ball and ran to the bases, he'd yell: "Rrun ya bastarrd, rrun!!".
This went on for a while until a batter was walked. As the player walked towards first base, he yelled: "Rrun ya bastarrd, rrun!!".
The guy beside him explained that in this situation, the batter didn't have to run to first base. When the Scotsman asked why, the guy said that he has to walk because he had 4 balls.
The Scotsman jumped up and yelled at the top of his lungs: "Walk with prride, laddie! Walk with prride!!!"
