Yes- once the batted ball passes an infielder (excluding the pitcher) AND no other fielder has a chance to make a play, the runner hit is not out and the ball should remain live.
Once the umpires established for you that the ball had passed the infielder, the only other thing for them to confirm would be if, in their judgment, another fielder still had a chance to make a play.
If not, then they have misapplied a rule and that is 100% protestable.
