But the Twins needed more bodies, and they called Fitzgerald up. His first MLB hit was a home run. He ended up hitting just .196 with the Twins in 24 games, although he did put up a solid .759 OPS. He also played all four infield positions.

Fitzgerald has been good under pressure in Year 1; he has made four game-winning kicks, and Carolina would love another one Saturday.

Fitzgerald missed his only field-goal try but converted on both point-after attempts during Saturday's 16-14 loss to the Buccaneers.

Carolina Panthers kicker Ryan Fitzgerald's 46-yard FG makes it a 17-17 game in Charlotte. Los Angeles Rams defensive tackle Poona Ford sacks Carolina Panthers quarterback Bryce Young for a 9-yard loss. Quarterback Bryce Young's 16-yard strike to wide receiver Tetairoa McMillan moves chains for the Carolina Panthers.
