Hey Alex..
I am guessing over there you are using ISF rules which I don't know but I believe they are pretty similar to ASA. Having said that..
If a ball gets stuck or is perhaps just barely into an out of play area the defense may put up their hands to let umpires know they think the ball should be dead. But a player raising his/her hands does not kill the play. As the umpire there is no need to kill the ball to go out and check if it should be dead.
On the other hand if prior to digging out the ball PU decided he could tell from his position that the ball was dead then 2B would be correct. Once he kills it it is a bell that really can't be unrung.
Have you talked to this UIC afterward to determine what the conference was about? Not to mention your partner?
