A Scottish-American father comes over to America from Scotland for a visit, and his son takes him to a baseball to show him a real piece of Americana.

The son is explaining the game, and the father keeps asking (In a Scottish accent), "Why's he runnin' so hard?" "Because he's trying to beat the throw to first base."

Later on a batter hits a liner down the line and takes off like a blaze down the 1st baseline, trying for a triple and the dad exclaims "Why's he runnin' like that?!?" Because he's trying to get to 3rd base before the throw."

This continues for a bit until they reach a batter with a full count and on the 6th pitch the batter earns a base on balls. The father, beside himself, starts frantically asking "Why's he walkin'?"

"Because he has four balls."

"Ah, walk with pride Son. Walk with pride."
