I don't remember who told me to tell the pitcher the game situation on a pitching change, but I have done it historically. I suppose now would be a good time to quite telling them. I have worked with a good bit of umpires and most of them ask the base umpire to tell the pitcher the game situation at the end of her warm up pitches.
On the Dead Ball/Foul Ball situation, I call Dead Ball when there is contact between the batter and the ball. In the event that she is not in the box, the Dead Ball is followed up with a verbal indication of Batter’s out.
