It's all about timing
Nothing wrong with giving the batters out when he/she is out along with the signal as well saying strike three or three but not "pumping" an out or saying out should be good enough for the realization that it is d3k. If an umpire has good timing then he/she should not get burned by saying batter out when that batter is out.
