That's the appropriate process. The managers contact the league president if they wish to appeal the ejectons to allow the game to continue.
The umpires did their job, now the league president does his.
Those ejections reinstated are accompanied by fines and suspensions. A fine to a Single A player and manager is more consequential than one to a ML player or manager.
