There is a little more to the story here. It seems that the news crew had set up down the third base line with the lights shining toward home plate. If I remember correctly, the news crew were on their 5th or 6th take and the start was already delayed by 25 minutes. The PU had enough (according to his partners) and got the game underway by getting security to "help" the news crew off the field. The entire crew was reprimanded for the long delay, not the ejection!
Just as in MLB, MiLB wants these games under way ASAP. They had planned a 5 to 10 minute delay which was agreed to by all, but the news crew figured that they had their 1st Amendment Rights! Guess they were wrong!
