Watch rapper Bun B sum up the atmosphere in Houston at World Series Game 3

Friday night marked the first time a World Series game was played in Houston since 2005 -- back when the Astros were still in the National League. It'd been a long time.
Before the Astros took a 2-1 series lead over the Dodgers with a 5-3 win, rapper and Houston-area icon Bun B (who is also a guest lecturer at Rice University these days) was spotted outside the stadium, taking in some of the fan experience. 
Bun B, who of course rose to prominence as one-half of the rap duo UGK and has since moved on to solo work, spoke a bit with MLB.com about the vibe of the city, and how much the Astros being in the Fall Classic is "what we've been waiting for in this city," both due to the long drought between World Series appearances and because of the devastation of Hurricane Harvey just two months ago.
Watch his full interview segment in the video atop this post.
Tune into Game 4 of the World Series presented by YouTube TV tonight on FOX (7:30 p.m. ET air time, 8 ET game time).
