Tim Tebow suffers ankle injury from an odd cause

Tim Tebow may soon get his chance at Double-A ball, but he’ll first need to recover from an ankle injury he suffered on Sunday.

Tebow sprained his ankle while warming up on the field, and did so by tripping over a sprinkler head.

The injury obviously isn’t believed to be serious, as the Mets listed Tebow as day-to-day.

As for the sprinkler head, well, we’re not sure what the extent of its injury is. Tebow is a pretty big guy, and likely left his mark on it.
