In a similar situation, do you quickly and emphatically announce ball four if R1 is stealing? Or do you simply use your normal timing and call ball while the catcher is throwing to second?

How is that similar?
A ball is a ball!
An OUT is an OUT!
Stop reaching! What would you suggest, "that's ball four, don't throw catcher"! Gimme a break!
Even if the catcher throws, what are the odds that R1 is going to get to third?
I'm talking players who play and are coached baseball!
