PORT ST. LUCIE, Fla. -- Tim Tebow says hes just trying to get better each day, and he did it by a few extra feet on Day 2 of the New York Mets instructional league.One day after the quarterback-turned-baseball-hopeful put three balls off the fence at the Mets training complex, Tebow homered to right field during batting practice Tuesday.Felt a little more comfortable with a day under my belt, just getting more used to everything, the preparations, said Tebow, the former NFL quarterback and 2007 Heisman Trophy winner. All those silly things that you have to go through, right? Getting in the building, finding everything that you need, cafeteria, everything, and just getting used to the routine.A Mets staff member went behind the fence a few minutes after Tebows blast and returned with a baseball, though it wasnt clear if it was the one hit by Tebow.The composition of the workout from Day 1 to Day 2 was similar. The atmosphere wasnt -- the media contingent was considerably smaller than it was Monday -- as maybe about one-quarter as many fans showed up as the day before.Whether its five people or 500 people, you cant let that bother you, the size of the crowd or what people are saying or the hype or no hype, Tebow said. I just try not to get involved at all and just try not to pay attention at all and focus on being a baseball player.Hes also finding time to stay on top of his other job as an analyst with the SEC Network, with time management not an issue. Tebow will work out at least twice more in Port St. Lucie this week, then head to the Auburn-LSU game this weekend before returning to the Mets complex.When instructional league games start, Tebow expects to play -- though theres no firm plan yet for what will happen after these three weeks, such as whether hell go to the Arizona Fall League. For now, he said hes trying to take advantage of every opportunity to meet with coaches, talking situational play in the outfield and the Mets preferred approach to hitting.The goal of Tuesdays batting practice session, Tebow said, was to find outfield gaps. He just managed to hit one a little farther, saying he felt more comfortable with additional preparation and warm-up time.Not necessarily the goal, Tebow said of the homer.

With the Castle Stuart links course there for the taking on another glorious day in the Highlands, Els shot a 2-under 70 to follow his level-par first round. "I had no idea on these greens -- Im glad Im leaving," Els said. "I just didnt quite get the run of the course." The last Scot to win his home event was Colin Montgomerie in 1999 -- but Doak has a chance to end that barren run after shooting a second straight 66 to move to 12 under. Peter Uihlein is a shot adrift in second place after recovering from an early double bogey to shoot a 66. Overnight leader John Parry (8 under) was among the afternoon starters, along with eighth-ranked Phil Mickelson (6 under). Els was a late entrant into the tournament as he sought some links practice ahead of Muirfield -- where he won the British Open in 2002 and where he will defend the title captured last year at Lytham. Off the tee, Els has played solidly this week but his game has floundered on the greens and his approach shots havent been up to his usual standard. He doesnt, however, see this as a problem ahead of next week and his shot at a third claret jug. "These courses are so different -- Muirfield is a lot more traditional links," Els said. "I got a lot of awkward bounces this week but I feel Im swinging well, striking the ball well. "I think my game is where I want it." Midway through the second round, the projected cut was 4 under, leaving Els to accept he woulld be spending the weekend with his family rather than at Castle Stuart.dddddddddddd Doak, who wears a flat cap in honour of his idol Ben Hogan, thrilled the locals on a sunny, calm morning by making three birdies in the first six holes and then adding two more as well as an eagle 3 at No. 12 to finish a stroke clear of Uihlein. The 35-year-old Doak has flitted between the European Tour and second-tier Challenge Tour and is currently ranked No. 341, but his resume is littered with triumphs on the Highlands links in his younger days. And he gained confidence by qualifying for last months U.S. Open. "That experience all in all was great and spurs you on to get back there," said Doak, one of 19 Scots in the 156-man field. Phil Mickelson led the U.S. charge on the opening day -- the four-time major was an afternoon starter and heads out on 6 under -- but it was taken up 24 hours later by Uihlein, who is acting as something of a trailblazer for Americans by playing in Europe. With his European Tour card secured after a win in Portugal in May, the softly spoken 23-year-old is playing without pressure and he found his putting range on his second nine after making 7 at No. 12 -- his third hole. He made eight birdies in all. Henrik Stenson of Sweden is a shot further back on 10 under after a superb 64 -- equalling the best round of the week -- while Francesco Molinari was alone in the clubhouse on 8 under as the Italian looks to make up for losing in a playoff to Jeev Milkha Singh last year. "I didnt feel like I was playing fantastic, so it was a bit of weird one to shoot 64," said Stenson, who is ranked No. 32 after being as low as No. 230 last year. ' ' '
