I guess I have to agree that the issue is
- the definition of "play" as in "making a play", along with
- "If I am the defender I may wish to trap the ball while foul because I have no play for an out. Or I may wish to hover over the ball and grab it as soon as it rolls fair so that I may get an out. If the offensive player knocks me away from the ball, how can I make a play?" and
- BretMan's example.

I would call INT at the moment of contact because at the moment of contact, I don't know where the ball will go or what the fielder is thinking.
