What is your call and why?
Rule Reference please.

Don't have books so I cannot give a reference but there is no "tie up", as you state player B is OOB. Player B caused the ball to go OOB, ball to A at the spot.
Also from your post, don't see how any player can "legally and simultaneously" posses the ball with any other player if they are OOB.
