Will the Colorado Rockies’ Charlie Blackmon shave the beard after he reties?

Blackmon talked with the media at a news conference Tuesday afternoon (Sept. 24), and the question of the beard inevitably came up.

“Such a good question,” he said. “My wife’s actually never seen me without it, though I’m a little bit concerned how that would be received at home. I think there will be a time. I’m not going to put any dates on it for you, but I think there will be a time where I will have to reveal my naked face to my family. And clean it up, get a nice haircut and whatever, just to say that I’ve done it. But then after that, all bets are off.”
