.@MikeTrout thought @OrbitAstros was just giving him a hug. Nope. https://t.co/u6NRIX6Sdn

It looks like the Astros mascot, Orbit, is off to make some enemies and he has started with Angels’ Mike Trout. As he gave him a hug, he also posted a “I love the Astros” sign on his back.
Well played, Orbit, very well played.
Mike Trout didn’t expect this prank to go down but Orbit has joined the list of mascots that have gone the extra mile with players. You can see the whole thing unfold above.
We hope that other MLB mascots pull more pranks so that it would add more entertainment for fan purposes. Perhaps Bernie Brewer might be next.
