Read Garth's, Rich Ives, Bob Jenkins and TEES response.
They gave you the correct answer. You are relatively new so please come back with questions because there are those who will do their best to give you the correct response.
However, you must also do your "due diligence" as well. You said LL and this EXACT ruling is verbatim from LL's book the "Right Call" so a little reading would not hurt.
NOTE: - For the most part you will only see players holding the bat over the plate in the "rug-rat" divisions of baseball. It's primary use is to distract F1. When the players reach shaven age this tactic goes away or B1 better get ready "to hit the deck"
