Except that you took a few steps that were unnecessary, IMO:
(1) You identified the league.
(2) You identified yourself and your partner.
(3) You identified the manager and the teams involved.
(4) You shared an ejection report, which most leagues would consider an internal document. I know that I've assigned umpires to leagues at about this level and would likely fire or suspend an umpire who leaked an ejection report to the public -- or even the umpire staff at large.
I think you could've accomplished the exact same goal you list above without doing any of the 4 things I've listed.
