Tim Tebow hits a homer in his first minor league at-bat
The loudest Single-A home run ever was hit on Thursday night when Tim Tebow — yes, that Tim Tebow — homered in his first official minor league at-bat.
The former quarterback and current Columbia Fireflies outfielder hit a two-run shot to the opposite field, much to the joy of pretty much everyone in attendance in the home crowd.

It's a Class-A dinger so let's not get ahead of ourselves and pencil him into tomorrow's Mets lineup, but it's still nothing to scoff at. A homer is a homer, and that's one heck of a start to Tebow's professional baseball career.
