Im sorry guys, as sure as I am that the batter did not intentionally interfer with the catcher, I am also positive that he did indeed interfer with the catcher.
I generally don't establish criteria to determine intent unless I am positive that it goes both ways. To date, I have not been able to fullfill that statement. Did he interfer? Yes. Batter out.Son, you didn't interfer on purpose, but you did interfer.
And yes, that would also apply to the play at the plate.
I don't believe the rules give me the latitude to decide intent for this situation. But,as long as I stay consistent in all cases, I believe there shoudn't be a problem.
