The guy Tim Tebow homered off of once trashed him on Twitter

Tim Tebow took former Vanderbilt pitcher John Kilichowski yard with the first pitch he saw as a professional baseball player and it was all retribution for a tweet back in 2013.

Kilichowski, a Florida football fan and Tampa native, commented on how former Gators quarterback Jeff Driskell's “problem is that he's bad at football. Other than that he's doing alright.” The tweet was posted during the 2013 Sugar Bowl, when Driskell turned the ball over three times on two interception and a fumble. He would finish the day 16 of 29 for 175 yards.

one of Kilichowski's follower replied with the logic that “DJ Diaz > a rock > mark Sanchez > Jeff driskell > anything inanimate > Tim tebow.” That's when Kilichowski replied with "your math added up perfectly until I hit Tebow.”
