Well, if you were acting solo (one-man), you would handle both the obstruction call at third and the out call at second. With two-man, however, the PU takes the OBS call, and the BU would make the call on the BR at second.
As for calling "dead ball", is that really necessary, given the fact that the out at second base was the third out of the inning? What is appropriate for ASA play? Would "Time" be the better verbal here? Does it matter?
