Nationals' Jayson Werth: Mashes 13th homer against Arizona

Werth homered, his 13th, in a 3-for-5 game with two runs scored Tuesday against the Diamondbacks.

Analysis:

Werth had a solid 17:24 BB:K in July, but didn't hit for much power, with just two home runs and a .369 slugging percentage. Still, he managed to surpass last season's home run total with Tuesday's blast. At .254/.343/.429, Werth's batting line has improved across the board from last season's lackluster .221/.302/.384 mark.
