Proud day for Tim Tebow‘s hitting coach — ex-MLB player Chad Moeller — who tells us Tim’s 1st at-bat home run sends a strong message to the baseball world that he’s the REAL DEAL.
Moeller worked with Tebow for months before he signed a minor league deal with the NY Mets — and says he wasn’t surprised that Tim opened his baseball career with jack to left center.
Moeller knows that instructional league ball ain’t exactly the big leagues … but the home run will add to Tim’s confidence … and that’s incredibly important as he moves forward.
