Jerk or not, you don't allow a pitcher to throw the ball prior to the batter being ready. Too many things can go wrong, including injury, to allow this to happen.

The umpire has a tool to use in this situation. If the batter refuses to get ready, 10 seconds, strike. S/He'll get ready, or have another strike by the time s/he realizes arguing is senseless.
