It might have taken him longer than he would have liked, but Tim Tebow finally has his first hit in the Arizona Fall League.
Tebow snapped his 0 for 13 drought in the league that features many of MLB's top upper-level prospects by hitting a line drive single to left field in his second at-bat with the Scottsdale Scorpions on Tuesday.
The single came against Mesa Solar Sox right-hander Duane Underwood Jr., a Chicago Cubs prospect who went 0-5 with a 4.91 ERA in 13 starts with Double-A Tennessee during the regular season.
Tebow started 0-for-9 in the Arizona Fall League, then took the weekend off to fulfill his duties as a college football analyst for ESPN. He returned to the diamond on Monday and went 0-for-3 before his breakthrough on Tuesday.
The Mets signed Tebow to a minor league deal worth $100,000 last month.
