Didn't see it. But West must have judged him to have stopped the delivery to the plate. His timing determined that the two seconds was too long. Once he deceived Joe, it follows he deceived the batter. Judgement call. IP. Play. Protest wouldn't fly if outcome of game had been altered, because we are dealing with judgement.

West has been around too long for someone to win an argument against him that he judged the pitcher to have stopped. Right, Wrong, or in the middle, in Joe West's judgement, he stopped the delivery to the plate.
