If I call INT at the time of collision, I clearly have to reverse my call, no?

On a foul ball like that, I'm not making any immediate call of interference on the coach. I'm going to wait until I see if the ball was catchable. But I will definitely give the fielder the maximum benefit of the doubt after I see where the ball ended up.
