hmmm 2:25, let me think, just enough time to get those commercials in and keep the game moving along. Yep, that about covers it.

2:35 or 2:40 would be better. With 30-second commercials, you give time for an extra one.

The 2:25 isn't new.

What changed is that the clock used to start when the manager signaled for a new pitcher.

That's about right. :05 to throw the break, 2:00 of commercials, and :20 to give info on the new pitcher. I wish we'd get that much for high school pitching changes.
