During a spring training matchup with the Miami Marlins on Monday, Tim Tebow picked up his first hit of the spring.
Tebow had gone hitless in his first eight at-bats, but he sent a pitch by the Marlins’ Kyle Lobstein pitch to the opposite side of the field for a single to left field.
In the field, Tebow made a diving catch on a ball hit to left field.
