The classic Abbot and Costello routine was referring to the man playing the first base position, while the man in the photo is clearly a base runner.

This first one is hilarious--I remember watching it!
Johnny Carson posing as Ronald Reagan preparing himself for a press conference. A spoof on the famous Abbott & Costello routine. Except this time it is: Hu, Watt, Where, Y, and Yassir.
