TEBOW SHARP AT PLATE, IN FIELD IN FINAL TUNEUP

Tim Tebow might have had his best day as a New York Mets prospect. The 2007 Heisman Trophy winner and former NFL quarterback had two hits, scored a run and ended a three-inning game with a sliding catch Tuesday in his final tuneup before his instructional league debut. He is set to play Wednesday against the St. Louis Cardinals’ instructional club. “I feel like every day I’m getting a little more comfortable,” said Tebow, who singled in his last two at-bats of the simulated game. “It’s great just to see live pitching and get live at-bats. I’m just getting a little bit better every day. That’s the goal.”
