Since the football thing didn't really work out for Tim Tebow, the former NFL quarterback, who turns 29 on Sunday, is now looking to break into a different sport altogether — Major League Baseball.
Tebow has spent the past year or so training for baseball in Arizona and Los Angeles, although he hasn't actually played seriously since he was an all-state player in high school in 2005, when he hit .494, ESPN reports. Back then, Tebow even managed to catch the attention of Angels scouts.
