Then the call was right.

What Ed said.

If the batter remains in the box, on any situation other than a play at the plate, she must intentionally interfere for an interference call.

If the batter leaves the box, then any interference should get the call, intentional or not.

Remember, to meet the definition of "interference" there must be a play. So, if the runner is going in standing up while the catcher is still chasing the passed ball, then there is no play, hence no interference is possible regardless of where the batter is.

Also, if the catcher makes no play, there was no interference - even if the reason the catcher did not attempt a play may have been that the batter was in the way.
