First Tebow’s bat went into the second level of the stands. Then, with a new bat in-hand, he struck out swinging.
Tebow’s at-bat came in a game for the Columbia Fireflies, the Single-A affiliate of the Mets, against the Charleston RiverDogs. He is batting .228 through 58 games this season.
Despite his mediocre numbers this season, Tebow could still be a part of a division-championship-winning Fireflies team this season. As of Friday night, they were in first place in the South Atlantic League’s southern division with a 40-27 record.
