Speaking ASA, we do not say "That's obstruction"; we do give the delayed dead ball signal. We are told in our clinics to not create a possible deterence to the play, simply to rule on the result. In baseball clinics, we were told to verbalize, hoping to stop play, and simplify potential rulings; not so in ASA.
