Allows four runs as opener
Richardson (0-1) was tagged with the loss Monday against the Royals after allowing four runs on one hit and two walks in one inning. He also struck out two.
Analiz
Richardson was facing a two-out, bases-loaded situation when Lane Thomas smashed a 106.3 mph missile into left-center field to give the Royals an advantage they'd never relinquish. Richardson was removed after that first inning, and his ERA now sits at 27.00 after just two big-league appearances this year. In 1.2 innings, he's given up five earned runs and two homers with a 3:2 K:BB.

Drawing short-notice start
The Reds announced that Richardson will serve as their opening pitcher for Monday's game against the Royals.
Analiz
With Chase Burns (illness) being scratched from his scheduled turn through the rotation on short notice, the Reds will turn to Richardson to make his first big-league start since 2023. Prior to being promoted from Triple-A Louisville on Saturday, Richardson has worked between two and three innings in nine of his 18 appearances in the minors this season, so he should be capable of providing a little more length than the typical opener. That said, Richardson isn't expected to work deep into Monday's contest, so the Reds could count on new call-up Brandon Leibrandt -- who had been starting with Louisville -- to cover multiple innings out of the bullpen.

Selected from Louisville
The Reds selected Richardson's contract from Triple-A Louisville on Saturday.
Analiz
Richardson has been with Louisville all season, turning in a 4.75 ERA and 1.26 WHIP alongside a 34:14 K:BB through 30.1 innings. He'll return to the majors as a replacement for Pierce Johnson (elbow) and likely be limited to low-leverage work as long as he's with the Reds. Kyle Nicolas was designated for assignment in a corresponding move.
