When done correctly the hitter who keeps his hands inside the ball will be able to keep more balls fair and he will have a short compact swing. .Keeping the hands inside the ball means that the elbow gets to a spot near the ribs as the hitter gets into the approach or short 3 position..At this point as the hands begin to move they move in a circular path rotating with the upper body..Many youth hitters throw their hands out to the ball but this causes their hands to work against the upper body and not with it.
