Definitely a HTBT play. I think a lot of it would depend on the level of play. Was it 2 schools fighting it out for District? Or was it a 10-U b team? If it is a really good quality game, I'd probably call interference if I thought the pulling back of the bat was not a natural thing to do at that instant. The quality teams know if a runner is going or not. If the bat is pulled back and interferes with the catcher with 2 quality teams, I believe I'll call the batter out. If it's 2 teams trying to figure out which end of the bat to hold, I'm probably gonna be a little more lenient.
Again, a lot of is on what you saw and what you think about the individual play.
