Who has the best beard in the big leagues?

If he doesn’t have the best, Jayson Werth of the Washington Nationals should at least be included in the conversation.

Werth will be looking to rebound from last season’s five-HR, 31-RBI season.

Nationals 2, Cardinals 1
WASHINGTON — The Washington Nationals signed Jayson Werth to show them how to win. His game-ending homer this evening extended their surprising season.
Werth led off the bottom of the ninth inning by driving Lance Lynn’s 13th pitch into the left-field stands to give the Nationals a 2-1 victory over the defending World Series champion St. Louis Cardinals and force a Game 5 in their NL Division Series.
As he circled the bases, Werth raised his right index finger in a “No. 1” gesture, while the announced crowd of 44,392 roared with delight.
The best-of-five series will end Friday night in Washington, with the winner advancing to face the San Francisco Giants in the NL championship series.
