Wilmer Difo has a pretty strong arm, regularly showing it off on the left side of the Washington Nationals' infield, but tossing a tight spiral isn't a skill he's mastered just yet.

Prior to Sunday's series finale at Nationals Park, Difo got a tutorial in how to throw a football by a teammate, per an Instagram video from Chelsea Janes of the Washington Post, and it's apparent the learning curve is steep.

The Nationals didn't indicate if Difo received any prior instruction on how to throw the football from New York Mets prospect Tim Tebow.
