It's been nearly four years since Tim Tebow decided to pursue a baseball career with the New York Mets, and though his tenure with the team has produced more lowlights than highlights, the former NFL quarterback and Heisman Trophy winner still hasn't given up.
On Friday, Tebow went 0-for-2 at the plate against the St. Louis Cardinals in Grapefruit League action, though his offense was the least of his worries.
With a chance to seal a game-winning out on a pop fly to left field, Tebow tripped over himself while tracking the ball, toppling to the ground as the ball landed right next to him.
