Quickly:
1) Call Time out.
2) Clean plate, Clean Glasses or whatever.
3) Call Time in with a "Let's Go" or something to indicate you want them to go quickly.
Should take no more then 5 seconds.

1. Umpires don't call "time in", they put the ball in play.
2. Putting the ball in play requires that the pitcher has the ball and is on the rubber, the batter, catcher and umpire are ready.
3. Don't ever clean your glasses during an inning.
4. 5 seconds? The umpire would like a Monty Python sketch.
