COLUMBIA, S.C. — Tim Tebow had his best week in the minors, showing some consistency at the plate last week with two multi-hit games for the Columbia Fireflies.

The 2007 Heisman Trophy winner out of the University of Florida and former NFL quarterback is in his first season with the New York Mets’ Class A affiliate. Last week, Tebow and the Fireflies completed two series, the first a three-game set in Rome, Georgia, before returning home for four games with Lexington, Kentucky.

Tebow played in six of the Fireflies’ seven games last week, all three at Rome and three of four with Lexington.
