That said, I'd really question whether it was unintentional. How often do batters fall / step in front of the plate when a runner isn't stealing? Approximately never.

you're right in general, but ive seen it happen. batter swings so hard he falls, loses balance etc. plus, in this situation, it was a 48 and over league, and this guy was a good 65. i felt terrible making that call on him, because, well, he was 65 and just had no control over that.
