That's sort of like the play I had where the batter took one step backwards out of the box and got hit with a subsequent pickoff attempt by the catcher, where the play appeared to begin after the batter left the box.

In your post, I would say that if the runner from 3B has come far enough off so the play is developing on the pitch, it's INT, but if the play develops well after F2 has received the ball, it's not. Even then, did the batter in your OP stay in the box? If I'm the catcher, I'm sure not to hit the batter.
