I don't see that. Actually, the batter's actions in this snippet seem to me to be completely normal. Of course, I don't know what happened before, or what was said, but there is no reason at all to complain about this particular approach of the batter into the box. Rule 6.02(b) comment doesn't describe a specific choreography that a batter must follow to enter the box, but does require a batter to stay in "once a batter has taken his position in the batter’s box". The batter here takes a normal amount of time to enter the box. Just 15 seconds have elapsed after impact of the foul ball before the batter is in his stance, and the PU is out from behind the plate and remonstrating the batter.
This is a video of one at bat in a baseball game. Where's the other two or three hours of video showing all the good things that PU did?
