Mets OF Tim Tebow started in left field and batted seventh for the Scottsdale Scorpions during today's Arizona Fall League opener.
He went 0-for-3 with three ground outs while playing five innings.
The Scorpions are comprised of minor leaguers from the Mets, Yankees, Phillies, Angels and Giants.
Mets infielder Gavin Cecchini batted third and played shortstop.
"I think it'll be a great challenge, I think it'll be awesome," Tebow said before the game, according to MLB.com. "I think it'll be a challenge not only as far as competing, but I think it'll be a blessing as far as learning from a lot of guys that are doing it at a high level and getting ready to be at the highest level, that's great.
