the second base umpire was calling dead ball with two hands up

However, I was confused by the umpire telling the defensive coach something about "a step-and-a-half". What was that?

Yeah, I saw the 2 hands up at the 1st of the the replay. But, a few seconds later, he only had his right hand up, clenched and gave the motion, twice, which to me, looked like he was signalling she should have been out.

The step and a half thing, to me was his way of selling the call. The coach wasn't going to question it too hard on National TV, with a mike on. Probably some of that fabricated material that the coaches are usually throwing at us.
