Bryce Harper swings (and misses) at Mall slow-pitch (VIDEO)

WASHINGTON – Bryce Harper has been traded.

…temporarily, and the Nats will probably take him back.

The 19-year-old actually missed his first swing, and fouled on his second.

Check out his performance after trading baseball pants for jeans, and Nats Stadium for the National Monument, as well as the heckling from his teammates:
