Whether this is right or wrong, I'm not sure... but the way it was explained to me was that the NCAA (probably meaning coaches) felt that if the batter had the bat out there and didn't pull it back, they had it there for a reason. If that reason was not to hit the ball, then the only other conceivable reason was to interfere with the catcher's vision on a possible steal. To not even give the batter a strike for this seemed incongruous.
