Tim Tebow made his debut with the New York Mets on Wednesday as the Amazins played the Boston Red Sox.
Tebow’s first taste with the big boys didn’t turn out sparkling.
Tebow was the Mets designated hitter, batted eighth and played the entire game. Reigning American League CY Young award winner Rick Porcello struck Tebow out in his first at-bat. The former quarterback grounded into a double play in his second at-bat and received a standing ovation from the crowd, according to Scott Lauber of ESPN.
