Quote: Another frequent violation is of Rule 6.02 (b), which states, "The batter may not leave his position in the batter's box after the pitcher comes to Set Position, or starts his windup." In fact, the Playing Rules Committee has clarified this rule to mean that the batter cannot call "time' after this point "even though the batter claims 'dust in his eyes,' 'steamed glasses,' 'didn't get the sign' or for any other cause."

From: http://www.strikethree.com/99/05/01/michael.shtml

Is the rule, as well as the clarification that he wrote correct?
