Brandon Williamson left the game against Atlanta with a strained left elbow after pitching just one and one-third innings. He had given up three runs and three hits, including two home runs to Michael Harris II and Matt Olson. The 26-year-old made his first major league start of the season on September 1 after recovering from a shoulder injury sustained during spring training. Williamson was acquired by Cincinnati in a March 2022 trade that involved sending Jesse Winker and Eugenio Suárez to Seattle.
