Only if the umpire judges that the slide constituted illegal contact or illegal alteration of the play. 8-4-2b

I agree that in most instances, I would judge this to be INT. I'm simply pointing out that it's still the illegal contact or alteration, not the illegal slide as such, that is punished with INT here.
