I have to agree. Although I know I am going to take heat for my opinion, I would kill the play as soon as it is clear the catcher is really hurt ( going to the bench area ). Yes, R1 might advance and get all the way to 3rd or maybe even score, but I feel the spirit of the game, sportsmanship etc. was important enough to worry about the safety of the players. I could have just stood there and let the play unravel, but I am pretty sure that the catcher's teammates would have been running to his aid and not worried about playing on R1.
You were right . . . .
in my humble opinion.
