motivational speaker willie jolly says success comes with total commitment. >>> hello this is willie jolly and today's live better step for success is the power of totally giving your all. be in it to win it in order to have success in life you must commit to give it all. you cannot be effective if you dabble. you have to be a no option person. it is he or she who makes a decision they are in it with all they got. when you make that commitment you will make it happen because you have no other choice. here's a story about a general who took his troops to a major battle on a distant shore. as they approached the enemy they discovered they were outnumbered and the troops became afraid but the general knew they had potential to win. and he saw the fear in their eyes and he gave an order to burn the boat. now they had no other choice, win or die. at that moment they became energized and fought with fury and they won. folks, we must develop a sink or swim no option mind set. do or die and make a decision

rollins hammers one to center, willie harris with the first out.e passed the phillies in runs. they are number one in the league in homers with 191. ryan howard is wearing out right-handed pitchers. maybe the lefty lannan can do a job on him tonight, but howard is hitting .344 over his last 21 games. and there is the old grinder charlie manuel. his team has lost four straight. they just got swept by houston. 19 over the .500 mark. six games up on the marlins. it appeared they were heading for a double digit lead until the last week or so, and a base hit by the always pesky victorino. doesn't matter that he was 11 for his last 69. >> rob: well, he's had a good batting average career off lannan. you have to get inside. you have to pitch inside tonight and have some fun. you know what? be the stopper, try to stop these guys, they are going to the may-offs, and measure yourself up against a playoff contending team would be nice down the stretch for you. >> bob: chase utley takes one upstairs. 29 home runs this year. he's hit 11 of them against left-han

willie harris 4 for 3, zimmerman 1 for 4, done.kes has really come alive, had a big signal to short in the second and to right in the fourth. here is that second hit can't make the plate at first base. comes up again in the fourth inning, again, fastball right over the middle of the play. i think you're going to see cukes hit a lot more to right field. that's one of the things he worked on in syracuse was hitting the ball to all feds. the thing about dukes, you're going to see him be far more productive. they don't quite have the outfield depth at the moment, maybe with the return of justin maxwell they will. but dukes is a guy who has somewhat fragile needs based on what we have seen thus far in the major leagues. so i think he has a great stroke, has learned how to use all fields and the future is fairly fright for this guy who, whatever personal. >> interview: he had coming to washington, those are well behind him. >> when you look at the chances the nationals had tonight, a couple came to mind, bases loaded in fourth inning, ca
