I disagree. Batter needs to get in the box. If the pitcher wants to throw with his other hand, that's his problem. A pitcher who can throw with either hand is extremely rare. The batter is delaying the game going from one side of the plate to the other.
And, in that at bat, it didn't matter what side the batter was on when he swings at a curveball 5 feet out of the strike zone.
Will it blend? That is the question.
