Oh my god. that is funny. This is the first time i've seen this, and i've just been told i have to learn this entire routine for a show. This'll be fun and scary.
Geniuses and true vaudeville professionals at work. By the time this was filmed, they had done the "Baseball Routine" as they called it, so many times, that they could tailor it to fit any time sequence from 2 minutes to 10 minutes. Note in this version the extended sequence arguing over "who gets the money". Some versions spend a lot of time in the infield. The beauty is, although we've all seen this hundreds of time you often never saw the same routine twice, which kept it fresh.
It's interesting how every position is included in this performance except for right field. And for the people who for some reason don't get this joke, I have listed below the players names. LOL
I like to feel sexy....knowing someone is watching me ..wanting me...turns me on!BADLY! I like to flirt and pose..and sometimes i like to get WILD! how? ..he he..come in video and youll see:-)) maybe u can teach me something..or maybe i will ! come visit me at _ MeetYourFling (.COM) _ my user-id there is blisse-lebq chat soon on cam :-) jesbcwvkdqj
Incredible team doing a hilarious bit. Priceless! You had to love Lou because he was funny, even just standing still and saying nothing. On the other hand, Bud was the perfect shill setting up the jokes and giving Lou full rein. Takes courage--and talent--to accept staying in Lou's shadow. Miss them both.
My fiance and I got into this scene last night....it was absolutely hilarious!!

Oh my God, this is classic comedy right here.
I adore Abbott and Costello, always have since I was little and used to watch their stuff on TCM with my dad.
This is sheer brilliance. Witty and clean; such a contrast to today's more vulgar comedic acts, y'know?
These are true masters of comedic genius
Brilliant.

BTW, it was Lou Costello (with an "o"). But that certainly doesn't take anything away from the video. Thanks very much for posting!
