Former NFL quarterback and current ESPN broadcaster Tim Tebow is actively pursuing a career in professional baseball and plans to hold a workout for Major League Baseball teams later this month, according to his agents Jimmy Sexton and Nick Khan.
For almost the past year, Tebow has been training in Arizona and Los Angeles to hone his play as a professional batter and outfielder in a sport he had played on a full-time basis since he was in high school in 2005.
"Obviously we support Tim in his pursuit of a baseball career, as we have in all his ventures," Tebow's football agent, Sexton, who is now working with CAA baseball agent, Brodie Van Wagenen, told ESPN.
