Prior to Game 3 of the World Series, Orbit offered some predictions

After an action-packed, 11-inning Game 2 win over the Dodgers to tie the World Series at 1-1, the Astros returned to Houston for Game 3 on Friday. During batting practice -- when everyone was getting in their last-minute predictions for the game and the Series -- Orbit dropped in on MLB.com's broadcast to offer some predictions of his own.
First up: What will the atmosphere at Minute Maid Park be like?

For those not fluent in Mascot, that means the atmosphere in Houston is going to be -- as the kids say -- lit.
Of course the fans will be into it. But, how important will Orbit be to the outcome of the game?

It appears as if Orbit's contributions to Game 3 will be recognized more and more as the game goes on. Those contributions were indeed positive as Orbit treated the Houston faithful to some free cotton candy on the way to a 5-3 Astros win.
Tune in to Game 4 of the World Series presented by YouTube TV on Saturday on FOX (7:30 p.m. ET air time, 8 ET game time)
