Tim Tebow hits walk-off home run

Tim Tebow seems to be rolling right along since he's joined the Florida minor league baseball team, the St. Lucie Mets.

Northeast Florida's own Tebow hit a walk-off home run on Thursday night to lift the Mets to a 5-4 victory over the Daytona Tortugas.

During Tebow's first day with the St. Lucie Mets in June, he hit a home run during the second game of a double-header.

Tebow was promoted to St. Lucie from the Mets' South Atlantic League affiliate, the Columbia Fireflies.

He got off to a good start in his debut with the Fireflies as well, hitting a home run in his first at-bat in April.
