Pretty cut and dried for me. The plate ump is pointing to it as soon as he judges the ball intentionally dropped, and the base ump (who picked up on that), was pointing to the batter as well as the one being out.
The beauty of this officiating is, even though the play was unusual, neither of the umpires got "excited"...they just very routinely did their jobs. Fun stuff!
