Mets “prospect” Tim Tebow drew the toughest of challengers for his first ever spring training at bat — reigning AL Cy Young Award winner Rick Porcello. But to our surprise, the Heisman Trophy winner put up quite the fight out there.
Just kidding!
Tebow saw four pitches — all fastballs — and struck out looking. He did, however, let the ump know he wasn’t so sure about that call:

God didn’t have his back there, but there’s still an outside shot for a random home run.
Update: Second at bat — Tebow sacrifices two runners for a run.
