PORT ST. LUCIE, Fla. -- By now, Tim Tebow has shown he belongs in professional baseball. He's fully committed to the game and much more comfortable on the field.
Sometimes, though, he still sounds like a football player.
On his first day at spring training with the New York Mets, the former NFL quarterback was reflecting on last year, when he injured his ankle stepping on a sprinkler head at the beginning of camp.
"I didn't run or I didn't play one snap of outfield," Tebow said Saturday, eliciting big laughs while catching himself.
