It was pretty clear and the right call. Intentional or not doesn't matter. Same goes for a base runner if he gets hit by the ball after a batter hits it, automatically called out even though there might not be any way of dodging it. Also it doesn't even look like that tough of a ball to catch...
If 3 teams were DQ'd clearly the rules weren't clear enough. For a big sport like this you'd think they'd have a big conference explaining and answering any q's the teams may have especially when this is the first time and probably the only time this rule is in effect this season.
