I dunno. I probably would have given an emphatic, "RUNNER'S OUT! RUNNER'S OUT!" to make sure everyone understood that the runner is no longer viable.

To me, it's no different than when the PU announces loudly that a batter is out on an uncaught third strike when he cannot advance to first base (first is occupied with less than two outs). Why sit back and allow the meaningless rundown?
