Running Lane - Whose Call?

In discussing this with a friend there is indeed one situation where the base umpire makes this call. It happens only if HPU falls flat on his face unconscious and the base umpire is the only one awake to call it. So I guess it's plausible.

So if your HP partner gets hit in the head with the batter's bat, but he goes to one knee instead of flat on his face, and he remains conscious but is woozy and looking down, you won't make the call?
