I'm sure if you ejected him, it was warranted. I don't believe anyone here should "judge" your decision since they weren't at the game. Ejections are usually flagrant violations or a result of culminating events (unless you're Earl Weaver).
For me, it depends on the game sitch. Unless there had been previous "sportmanship" problems in the game and I had to get involved, I probably would have warned the pitcher and reminded the bench that no bench jockeying is allowed. (This is only based on the one play described without the benefit of umpiring the previous 4-1/2 innings)
I also know some umpires that have a zero tolerance for cussing and would have done the same thing, regardless.
Ultimately, it's up to you to decide what actions to tolerate or not. Base those decisions on your experience and current game situations.
