I don't really care whether you've used the right words here or which sport you started working in...

There is NO RULE SET, in either sport, in which the infielder who happens to be near the center of the diamond (aka the pitcher) is penalized for touching the object from which he or she normally pitches when throwing to first base in order to retire a batter-runner. (Honestly, I'm surprised an experienced umpire in EITHER sport would even consider this a problem for even the shortest of moments).

Hopefully someone somewhere will recognize that you, the umpire, have moved out from behind the plate and it will be obvious to SOMEone that there is no eminent pitch.
