If B1 was Shaq swinging hard downward, and A1 was J.J. from Good Times (a beanpole), then conceivably the hit by B1 could be so forceful that it knocks A1 down. In that rare instance, I have a foul on B1.

[I also wouldn't call this a foul unless the contact was excessive, i.e., an intentional personal foul, OR flagrant]
