Howie Kendrick backflipped, and Astros mascot Orbit fainted in amazement

Orbit is a pretty strong guy. He hails from another planet that could very well have a higher rate of gravitational acceleration than Earth's, leading to his species evolving with strength far above that of Homo Sapiens. He demonstrated this on Sunday when he performed a sequence of one-handed clap push-ups as part of an athletic competition with the Angels' Howie Kendrick.

As impressive as that was, Kendrick had an ace up his sleeve. He waited until Orbit was finished to break out a full standing backflip -- and Orbit was in disbelief.

That's what you call a mic drop -- or maybe, in this case, a mascot drop.
