Tim Tebow gives sad Mets land fleeting joy
The Mets are in shambles — their manager’s job in doubt, their season, now, too.
But 1,500 miles north of their deflating Sunday sweep, suffered to the lowly Marlins, came a glimmer of hope.
Tim Tebow launched his first Triple-A home run, a right-field rip that easily cleared the 330-foot NBT Bank Stadium wall in Syracuse.
The baby Mets, like their big-league club, still lost, though the NFL bust and MLB long shot stole the spotlight like he always does. The 31-year-old, whose every at-bat is a spectacle, was met with teasing silence as he made his way back to the Syracuse dugout, only to be mobbed by teammates shortly thereafter.
