What's The Call?

I had this situation last season. Bases loaded, but R3 steals to second on the next pitch. R3 and R2 both stood there staring at each other ("what on earth are you doing here ??).

Anyway, as some others have said, I just stepped out and waited things to play out.

I can't see where calling time is a solution.

Just the fact that the PU is out from behind the plate, staring at second base was enough to get the message across that something had to happen. In only a few seconds almost all spectators, coaches and players were shouting out various instructions.

(Oddly enough, the pitcher through to F3 who only touched the base. The offense coach called to R3 "you're out!!".
All activity stopped and R3 trotted off from second and into the dugout, at which time I called her out. So, a weird situation all around.)
