Costello: All we got is a couple of days on the team. You
know, I’m a catcher too.
Abbott: So they tell me.
Costello: I get behind the plate, do some fanSY catching.
Tomorrow’s pitching on my team and a heavy hitter gets up.
Abbott: Yes.
Costello: Now, the heavy hitter bunts the ball. When he bunts
the ball, me being a good catcher, I want to throw the guy out at
first base. So I pick up the ball, and throw it to who?
Abbott: Now that’s the first thing
that you’ve said right.
Costello: I don’t even know what I’m talking about!
Abbott: Well that’s all you have to
do!
Costello: Is throw the ball to first base?
Abbott: Yes.
Costello: Now who’s got it?
Abbott: Naturally.
(Pause)
Costello: Look, if I throw the ball to first base, somebody’s
got to get it. Now who has it?
Abbott: Naturally.
Costello: Who?
Abbott: Naturally.
Costello: Naturally?
Abbott: Naturally.
Costello: So I pick up the ball and throw it to Naturally?
Abbott:
No you don’t! You throw the ball to Who!
Costello: Naturally.
Abbott: That’s different.
Costello: That’s what I said.
Abbott: You’re not saying that.
Costello: I throw the ball to Naturally?
Abbott: You throw it to Who.
Costello: Naturally.
Abbott: That’s it.
Costello: That’s what I said!
Abbott: Listen, you ask me.
Costello: I throw the ball to who?
Abbott: Naturally.
Costello: Now, you ask me!
Abbott: You throw the ball to Who?
Costello: Naturally.
Abbott: That’s it.
Costello: Same as you!
Abbott: You just changed them around.
Costello: Same as you! I throw the ball to Who. Whoever it
is drops the ball, the guy runs to second, Who picks up the ball,
throw’s it to What, What throw’s it to I Don’t
Know, I Don’t Know throw’s it back to Tomorrow, triple
play!
Abbott: Yes.
Costello: Another guy gets up, and it’s a long fly ball
to because. Why? I don’t know, he’s on third, and I
don’t give a darn!
