In this situation, I too can understand the ejection being overturned. You want to make sure to get call the right even if it means changing the original call. This was a big time stage, and I felt the correction to the ejection was the correct route to take in this situation.
I know it looks weird from the normal human eye when all of us watched the play on television. Plus, it calls the judgement of the plate umpire into question by other people, but I would be willing to put money down that the plate umpire in this situation felt better knowing the correct call was being made with the ejection being overturned.
