AA: I'm Avi Arditti with Rosanne Skirble, and this week on Wordmaster -- some baseball word play in honor of the World Series.
RS: We've got a classic skit 1 about baseball. Bud Abbott and Lou Costello perform a linguistically 2 challenging bit of comedy called "Who's on First?" You'll find out -- but these two old-time comedians 3 talk pretty quickly, so listen closely.
