If you think you can do a better job, start your own umpiring school. Your instruction is absolutely wrong.

Think of it this way, if it is a fly ball down the right field line, the first base umpire has to go to the outfield, and who is responsible for seeing if the batter touched first base? The home plate umpire. Using those sets of circumstances, do you think the home plate umpire is calling Torres out? Never in a million years.
