Aussie's first Ball Game

Post by Allen » Sat May 23, 2009 6:41 am

An Aussie moves to Canada and attends his first baseball game. The first
batter approaches the batters' box, takes a few swings and then hits a double.

Everyone is on their feet screaming "Run!!!"

The next batter hits a single.
The Aussie listens as the crowd again cheers "RUN!! RUN!!"

The Aussie is enjoying the game and begins screaming with the fans.
The fifth batter comes up and four balls go by. The Umpire calls: "Walk."
The batter starts his slow trot to first base.

The Aussie stands up and screams, "Run you lazy bastard...RUN!"

The people around him begin laughing. Embarrassed, the Aussie sits back down.

A friendly fan notes the man's embarrassment, leans over and explains, "He can't run -- he has four balls."

The Aussie stands up and screams: "Walk with pride, Mate!"

Got a chuckle out of me too Allen.
Cheers from Micheal.
