In Dixie the rule about interference at the plate says if the batter stays in the box, interference must be intentional.
Just looked up the rule, might not apply here since is says catcher...
Quote:
7:03 THE BATTER SHALL NOT HINDER THE CATCHER FROM FIELDING OR THROWING THE BALL BY STEPPING OUT OF THE BATTERS BOX OR INTENTIONALLY HINDER THE CATCHER WHILE STANDING WITHIN THE BATTERS BOX.
