Batter interference?

Later in the game you might have to award one base on a pickoff out of play and be questioned on it.
I do know that Wendelstedt teaches that if your partner calls IFF when it's not correct by rule that you should immediately call and signal that there is no IFF.

I had one person tell me, if you as the base umpire pointed at the ball, the IFF was actually called.
