"There is no such thing as a delayed dead ball in professional baseball. The ball is either live or dead." Jim Evans

IMO that should be applied to FED as well. A ball, in fact, is live or dead. We don't have "comatose ball." When obstruction occurs, the ball is live. Period. At the end of play, it is then dead. DDB signals are lame and, if the correct obstruction signal is used, worthless.
