Astros mascot Orbit in underwear is a frightening sight (PHOTO)

Orbit was the Houston Astros' official mascot from 1990-99, but was replaced by Junction Jack from 2000-12. But now old Orbit is back and maybe now we know why he was sent away for a while. Kind of like that weird uncle who walks around in his skivvies.

Hopefully the green alien was off the Viagra and just carrying a bat yesterday.

Funny. When did Orbit start wearing underwear or pants in the first place?
