IR will NOT slow the game down. IMO, it will speed up the game.
Let's take last night
First Farrell comes out and argues (3-5 minutes)
Now the umpires huddle (another 3-5 mintes)
Call reversed
Out comes Matheny (another 3-5 minutes)
If IR was used - 2 minutes tops as it was a no brainer.
Remember the skippers will get challenges just like football and they will not waste them on close plays. This was obvious
Forget about being traditional All sports now have replay and it's about time baseball joins the rank and file.
