Tim Tebow homers to left-center in first at-bat of minor league debut

COLUMBIA, S.C. -- Tim Tebow hit a two-run homer in the first at-bat of his minor league baseball debut for the Class A Columbia Fireflies on Thursday night.

Tebow, the 2007 Heisman Trophy winner, drilled a 2-1 pitch off the railing just above the fence in left-center field, where a strong wind had been blowing out all day. Tebow stopped at second base, thinking it was a double, as an umpire twirled his hand to indicate the home run.

Fans shouted "Te-Bow! Te-Bow!'' after the former University of Florida and NFL quarterback fouled off a pitch.

The chants grew louder as Tebow circled the bases on his homer, pumping his fist as he rounded second.
