Abbott and Costello were an American comedy duo composed of comedians Bud Abbott (1897 - 1974) and Lou Costello (1906 - 1959), whose work in radio, film, and television made them the most popular comedy team of the 1940s and 1950s, and the highest-paid entertainers in the world during the Second World War. Their Baseball-themed routine "Who's on First?" is considered one of the greatest comedy routines of all time, a version of which appears in their 1945 film The Naughty Nineties.
