What OS?
Since you say "batch" file I will presume Windows.

Use the "-s:filename" parameter and pass a scriptfile to the ftp command
You can generate the scriptfile on the fly with echo commands and ">>" symbol 
redirection:

eg:

   echo verbose off> %ftp_tfile%
   echo open %ftp_tgt_node%>> %ftp_tfile%
   echo %ftp_tgt_user%>> %ftp_tfile%
   echo %ftp_tgt_pwd%>> %ftp_tfile%
   echo type ascii>> %ftp_tfile%
   echo cd %3>> %ftp_tfile%
   echo put %1%2>> %ftp_tfile%
   echo bye>> %ftp_tfile%

        rem Do the actual ftp using this script file
                rem TYPE %ftp_tfile%
   ftp -s:%ftp_tfile%

Example:

C:\Temp>type ftpscript.ftp
open mynode
username
secretpassword
type ascii
cd sys$login
get login.com
bye
C:\Temp>ftp -s:ftpscript.ftp
ftp> open mynode
Connected to mynode.
220 mynode FTP Server (Version V4.1-12) Ready.
User (mynode:(none)):
331 Username USERNAME requires a Password.

230 User logged in.
ftp>
ftp> type ascii
200 TYPE set to ASCII.
ftp> cd sys$login
250 CWD command succesful.
ftp> get login.com
200 PORT command successful.
150 Opening data connection for login.com (a.b.c.d,2828)
226 Transfer complete.
ftp: 1570 bytes received in 0.20Seconds 7.85Kbytes/sec.
ftp> bye
221 Goodbye.

C:\Temp>
