Hey gang, I brought the subject of hands coming together about two months ago. It was more or less decided that a pitcher could smack both hands together and that was good enough. Actually putting the ball in the glove with the bare hand wasn't required as I have had many pitchers just touch the ball to the glove. There was/is never a stop/pause with the hands together.

There is the (largely unenforced) 1 sec minimum time for the hands to be together, but otherwise the ball can be in the hand or in the glove, hidden or visible, and at the touch the hands can be stopped or in motion.
