It's funny because Costello gets so furious so quickly. Very American, that - the only Brit I can imagine doing it as well would be Tony Hancock.
I also liked Principal Skinner's attempt on The Simpsons, where he blew the sketch immediately by saying "Not the pronoun but a player with the unlikely name of Who, is on first."

Of course it's American. It's about baseball. I was just describing this the other day to some Dutch colleagues and they couldn't get it at all.
It's an old music hall routine, surely?
The baseball bit is optional.
