But Steve,
F2 should expect the batter to remain. His throw should go by the batter. If the batter is ducking, and his bat moves into the path of the thrown ball he is guilty of interference, intent or not. (The play at hand is that the batter's bat struck the ball, not F2 throwing into a batter's bat. That ducking equals "any other movement" refered to in the rules.)
