Check out POE 29 in the ASA book. Time can be called if the umpire feels immediate medical attention is needed. Also, the POE says that the runner can be awarded any base the umpire feels he/she would have reached had time not been called. So no need to wait till he touches 2nd before calling time. Doing so is ignoring the POE and in legal terms, negligent!
