If the ball is dead, then the defense has done nothing other than delay the game. So I feel a warning is in order here. Tell them to get the dead ball to the pitcher as quickly as posible. And since balls or strikes can't be awarded. Ejection is the rule.
Oh, please. You are giving over-officiousness a name here. Warn them for what? Tell them they can't do that with a dead ball and move on. Nothing to get excited for, nothing to warn, certainly nothing to eject for.
