Did you miss the call? Yes, but you fixed it.
Should you have held up the pitcher? No way, the batter was being a jerk.
Should you have sworn? No, but it worked to calm the situation. You were there and you used your judgement and it worked. Now if it had not worked you just gave the players a tool to use against you. "the umpire swore at us and it made the situation worse" or something like that.
