What would you do in a similar situation?
To answer your question, the rule states that you kill the play when the play is over. In this situation, I wait for the play to be over. Did the batter stop at second? If so, and I think the play has ended, I stop the play. If not, play on. It's a live ball until that happens. The injury doesn't necessitate the immediate killing of the play.
