I've got nothing.  If anything, maybe OPI since the intentional contact by A is there, but since B never looked back for the ball I'd probably let it go.  There is no team B initiated contact whatsoever.

R announces, "Pass interference, defense number 10, 15 yard penalty automatic first down."

"Number 10"? 
B-6 was the defender chasing the intended receiver.

Yea.  But giving the wrong player's number after a close call, like this play, is akin to throwing fat on a fire.  It just got a helluva hotter.   >:D

Uncatchable ball.

Uncatchable ?!?!   ???
I see the pass landing on the inside edge of the field numbers at about the B-8.  While the Team A receiver crumples to the ground on the outside edge of the field numbers about the same yardline.

Yer right. That's why I don't ref games at 8 a.m., and certainly not without the first cuppa. Mea culpa.

OPI if anything, and I think since there was such little separation gained, it would be impossible for the deep wing to notice as he would be somewhat straight-lined if he was in proper position and still 10 yards ahead of the players. The B would have the best angle to see if he felt there was enough separation to warrant an OPI foul.
There was no contact for DPI, and in we know there MUST be contact even if he is not playing the ball at all.
