Does the Angel's protest have a leg to stand on?

Well, since Joe Torre apparently ruled on the protest, you may have six of one, half dozen of the other!

As I said in my opening post, this is a judgment call, not subject to protest. Really, that's all Torre had to say. He wouldn't have to get into the fact that the interference is not with the throw, but with the catch, since the call is not protestable to begin with.
