It's illegal to delay in a time limit game. Batters taking extra time to tie their shoes, to ensure the clock runs out... fielders refusing to throw to the pitcher when play has stopped, specifically to run out the clock ... THOSE are illegal.

The OPPOSITE, which is what happened to you, is absolutely not illegal. You may hate it, but it's not. You SHOULD have gotten in trouble.

PS - even in the first case, you simply forfeit - no ejection necessary unless someone crosses the line after the forfeit.
