I've called this a double dribble based on my understanding of the dribble def. 4.15.1

No, you're not right. He didn't have possession. He batted the ball. He then gain control of it and then legally dribbled. The same principle applies to an offensibe player who receives a pass, bats it, controls it and then dribbles.
