Bryce Harper Lost a Home Run Derby to the Costco Kid

  • Phillies

If your brain hasn't yet been completely rotted by the internet, it's not too late to turn back.

For those of us that are too far gone, you're likely familiar, at least to some degree, with the Costco Family. A father-son duo with a massive YouTube following, A.J. and Big Justice are representative of the decline of society, whether directly or indirectly. 

A.J. and Big Justice have previously dipped their toes in the water of the baseball world, as their family recorded a "Bring the boom!" song prior to the World Series, showing their support for the New York Yankees: 

Now, if you made it this far, it is indeed too late to turn back. 

Phillies Nation's Ty Daubert is a big fan of A.J. and Big Justice — and who could forget "the Rizzler" — and brought to the world's attention Saturday that Harper competed with Big Justice in a home run derby (among other sporting events) on Mr. Beast's YouTube channel: 

Harper homered four times in 10 swings, a mark 11-year-old Big Justice needed just nine swings to beat. It's the type of thing that would be aired on ESPN Classic, if ESPN Classic still existed. 

If you're looking for a way to tide yourself over until Harper is back competing in meaningful games, may we suggest a trip to the movies with the family?
