Bud Selig announced today there will be video review of more plays and ability for managers to challenge an umps call in 2014. This will still be voted on by owners in November.
How it is proposed to work:
- Managers will get 1 Challenge from the 1st to the 6th inning.
- Managers will get 2 Challenges from the 7th until the end of the game.
- Managers will file the challenge with the crew chief or home plate ump.
- Managers can only challenge reviewable plays: 89 percent of all total plays.
- Managers can still argue non-reviewable plays: balls, strikes, hit by pitch, ruling of a dead ball.
- Managers do not keep challenges not used in the 1st through 6th
- Managers keep the their 1 challenge if the win it.
- Challenges will be reviewed and ruled by MLB headquarters in New York City, not umps.
- The current home run challenge is included.
- Challenges will take 1 minute and 15 seconds
