A ball becomes Dead when a pitched ball or a batted ball makes contact with the Batter correct? And since the PU is in the best position to rule as to whether the ball is a Foul Ball or a Hit by Pitch, then the BU yelling "DEAD!" seems appropriate to me whether the game is baseball or fastpitch softball.
