Brandon John Larson (born May 24, 1976) is an American former professional baseball third baseman.

[citation needed] In that year, he was nearly traded to the Philadelphia Phillies for future Hall of Fame third baseman Scott Rolen.

The proposal was dropped due to financial reasons after Reds president John Allen intervened.

In 2008, he was selected to participate in the Atlantic League Home Run Derby and was elected to the All-star game.
