The questions does not say who batted the ball but lets assume B batted it out of bounds.

I say NO. 7.5.7 Situation B (c) Throw-in spots" B legally contacted the ball and subsequently hit it out of bounds,ending the throw-in. Team A is awarded a designated spot throw-in on the end line.
Any violation which would give the ball back to A with an endline throw in gives them the ability to run the endline.

I don't have a rule reference, but I know that's how it is. My books are somewhere where I'm not.
That is not correct. To be able to run the endline, the violation or foul must occur before the throwin ends.

Violations or fouls that occur after the throwin ends are always spot throwins (if there is to be a throwin at all).

Consider this case....A1 throws the ball in. A2 catches and then dribbles up to top of the key where B2 then knocks the ball away such that it goes OOB on the endline. What kind of throwin do we have? Designated spot. Now, move that incident back towards the endline. Any different becasue of the location? No...spot throwin. Now change it to B knocking it directly OOB off the throwin. Still no different. Why would this be any different than A touching/dribbling it first? It's not.
