Tim Tebow Takes a Swing at Baseball
Tim Tebow: Back in uniform, just a baseball uniform this time.
FOX’s Chris Hoenig reports:
Tim Tebow working out for scouts from more than 25 Major Baseball teams in Los Angeles Tuesday, starting out in the field, where he showed off his arm from right field. Then standing in at the plate for some swings…
Reporters on-site tracking Tebow as going 8-for-19 with two doubles and three strikeouts against live pitching. He also ran 6.65 seconds in the 60-yard dash, which is above average by big league standards, but reports put his scouting grades below average in several areas, especially his defense.
If his baseball career doesn’t work out here, Tebow does have an offer from a team in Venezuela. Zulia are five-time league champs and usually draw some Major League players looking for some off-season swings.
