To make it easier, I am going to look inside the batter's head and state that she did not deliberately hit the catcher nor attempt to interfere with the throw. It just happened.

But that that matter? In ASA? In NFHS?

Speaking ASA

I could see where an umpire could sell an interference call, but I can also see a batter trying to regain their balance, withdraw to reset for the next pitch, etc. For an interference call, it would have to be obvious to me and the scenario offered just doesn't do that.

Don't know if we can rule on this one "electronically".
