Mar 9

takes like 10 seconds or less for a challenge. Limited to 2 failed challenges per game per team. Only the pitcher, catcher or batter can request one, with no input from the bench, so I guess if the ump hears the manager yelling to challenge he can refuse it. If a challenge succeeds, the team keeps it.

I like it so far. Won't be in play for the reg season.
