I must admit that I had never heard this routine, but looked it up after your inquiry.
This Bat Was Made for Slaughter In one of their lesser-known vaudeville acts, Abbott & Costello did a bit about Slaughter and Bob Feller. It went something like this: Abbott: "This is the hat Feller wears." Costello: Which Feller?" Abbott: "Why, the Feller that pitches for the Cleveland Indians..." Costello: "Which Feller are you talkin' about!?" And so on until ... Abbott: "This bat was made for Slaughter." Costello: "Haven't you got one that was made for baseball?" Abbott: "No, when I say Slaughter, I mean Enos Slaughter! Everyone knows Slaughter. Enos Slaughter." Costello: "Well maybe he knows Slaughter, but I don't!" |
