Saying "run" or "tag him" is coaching. Saying "no catch" is giving facts about the status. Again, only used when there might be some doubt.

You are correct that saying "Out" is also giving the status. My point on this is that it should no be used routinely -- use it when F2 catches the pitch that's near the dirt, or when BR runs when he's not legally allowed to.
