As far as I know the rule book is silent on this. But somebody will be along to correct me soon enough if it isn't.

The only times you should ever kill the play are if A) a player needs immediate medical attention or B) if the play has clearly ended and softball is no longer being played (as in a bench-clearing brawl), and thus, the play is over. Otherwise, you have no justification for killing the play.

I won't be coming here that much anymore. I might check in now and again.
