Looking at my NFHS baseball rules, they state:

A batter shall not:

Interfere with the catcher's fielding or throwing by:

c. making any other movement which hinders actions at home plate, or the catchers attempt to play on a runner.


In High school rules at least, there is no mention of intent.
Interference with a thrown ball must be intentional. Are you willing to be instructed?
