Was he correct? Well, he is not required to grant time.
OTOH, F1 had not come set yet, so ordinary practice might tend toward granting time.
Still, we don't see the whole AB in that clip, and for all I know the batter was very slow throughout it. I would have to see the entire AB (and perhaps the batter's other AB's in that game) to have a good sense of why he didn't grant time there.
MLB guys are usually exceptionally good at game management, and I for one would not second guess this choice.
