PHOTOS: Jayson Werth's beard shows no signs of regression

Nationals outfielder Jayson Werth will turn 35 in May, but it's readily apparent that his beard is simply immune to regression.

Behold, his charmingly unkempt mane prior to the 2013 season.

Now feast your eyes on the beard he sports today:

Werth's beard, his defining physical characteristic, is almost as impressive as his 1.032 OPS after the All-Star break last season. And don't even consider poking his beard with your microphone, lest you incur the beard's wrath.
