What's this?

I haven't watched a softball game in a long time. Question


Is running towards the pitch when swinging at the ball common? I had never seen that before. Does everyone do it? I assume it helps get an extra step toward the base on contact but seems to make hitting a bit harder. Just my uninformed observation if it works though
