SO runners on 1st base and the ball is hit to SS in the hole. 1B steps in front of R1 going to the bad and creates an OBS. SS throws to 2B for play on R1. Are you killing it dead ball there or letting the play continue so 2B can make the throw to 1B on the batter/runner?

Regarding my UIC's instrunctions this is what I surmise:
I am going to have to reread this (again USSSA), but I believe that an OBS is a call that is applied once the ball is dead. Therefore you make the call "out" during live ball. Call time - and then apply the OBS call.
