No, really what I said was that he should watch the ball, glance at the runner touching bases, then back to the ball on
base hits to the outfield. I didn't tell him to "just look at the ball all the time."
I also told him that it is far more important to know where the ball is than whether or not a runner touched a base. That is directly from the General Instructions To Umpires page of the OBR rule book.
