When the lineups were announced, every player who wasn't Tebow had "NOT TIM TEBOW" under his photo.

Over the weekend, Tebow's Columbia Fireflies team took on a team in Charleston, S.C., and the RiverDogs took the opportunity to mess with Tebow all night.

Thomas Szapucki (1-1) went six innings, allowing two runs and three hits to take the tough loss in the South Atlantic League game.

Needing a win to ensure the first half title and a playoff spot, Columbia (40-28) jumped out to an early advantage, collecting three straight hits in the first before Dash Winningham plated his 46th of the year with a sacrifice fly.

HIGHLIGHTS: Tebow had a hit in five straight games, his longest streak of the season.

Right-hander Gabriel Llanes (4-3, 2.93) is scheduled to start on Sunday against Charleston with first pitch at 1:05 p.m. Llanes faces RiverDogs righty Nick Green (4-4, 2.85).

Tebow then grabbed a new bat and dutifully struck out.

WHAT'S NEXT: After a couple of days off, Tebow and the Fireflies pick up the second half of the season at home with a four-game series against the Kannapolis (North Carolina) Intimidators.
