Am I doing the right thing?

I am in my tenth year of playing competitive men's slowpitch softball. Approx. two years ago I learned to "run up in the box" and hit the ball. This has helped me generate more HR's as when I make contact I have all of my weight (200LBS) moving forward. I have read the articles and discussion about generating bat speed and feel that I have more of a linear motion as opposed to a rotational motion on my bat head. What is your opinion of running up in the box to hit the ball as opposed to a traditional hitter. Also, do you think that combining a rotational motion during my swing and running up in the box will help me create bat speed and more power? Any advice or criticism would be helpful. Thanks
