COLUMBIA, S.C. (CBSNewYork/AP) — Tim Tebow struggled to find his stroke, but made a game-saving catch for the Columbia Fireflies last week.
The former Heisman Trophy winner and NFL quarterback played in five of six games over the week for the New York Mets’ Class A South Atlantic League franchise. His best game came Wednesday as he went 2-for-2 in a 10-5 loss to the Charleston RiverDogs.
The next day, Tebow’s tumbling catch in the ninth inning preserved a 3-2 victory over the Lexington Legends.
