It is possible (unlikely, but possible) that the batter falling across the plate does not alter F2's throw at all. That would not be INT. Having said that, I agree with most here that F2 gets ALL benefit of the doubt, and I believe I could count the Non-INT's I've had on one hand.

According to some posters here, the batter should dive to a prone position as if he heard incoming artillery.

For there to BE interference, the batter has to interfere. You get to decide if he interfered. That's why we get the big money.
