This is a similar situation, is it not? A pulled foot at 2nd base at the beginning of an apparent double play. The BU should make a safe signal AND verbalize something. Would anyone suggest to remain mute in this situation?

The signal is made up. Use it if you like. I'll ding you if I'm evaluating...
I agree, however, on the verbal. If it's close, call it an out verbally. If it's not an out, or it's not close, say nothing.
