TEBOW’S TALE

After his first week in St. Lucie, Tim Tebow had more rainouts than wins. The Mets lost their first four games with Tebow on the roster, and dropping the second game of a doubleheader on Sunday put them at 1-5 since the former Florida star quarterback was promoted to the Florida State League.

PORT ST. LUCIE, Fla.—Back in his home state, Tim Tebow had a superb first week with the St. Lucie Mets.

His team couldn’t say the same.

After his first week in St. Lucie, Tebow had experienced more rainouts than wins. The Mets lost their first four games with Tebow on the roster, and dropping the second game of a doubleheader in Fort Myers on Sunday put them at 1-5 since the former Florida Gators star quarterback was promoted to the Florida State League .

The former Heisman Trophy winner and NFL quarterback has gotten plenty of attention in his first week in the FSL, as would be expected. But what would have been his first game with St. Lucie was rained out, as was a scheduled Saturday game in Fort Myers.

A look how Tebow has fared this week and this season:

HIGHLIGHTS: Tebow homered on his first day actually playing with the Mets, connecting in Game 2 of a Wednesday doubleheader against Palm Beach. It was Tebow’s fourth home run of the season. He also made a leaping catch to save a home run at Fort Myers on Friday— though his team then gave up 11 runs in the eighth inning and lost 11-0.
