Former football star turned MLB hopeful Tim Tebow started his professional baseball career with a bang on Wednesday.
In his first game as a professional baseball player, on the first pitch he saw, the former Denver Broncos quarterback hit a home run.
Lefty Tim Tebow sent the ball over the left-field wall at the Instructional League opener between the New York Mets and the St. Louis Cardinals in Port St. Lucie, Fla.
He signed a minor-league contract with the Mets in September and hopes to make it in the Majors one day as an outfielder.
