Why the challenge system and not full ABS? Minor League (MiLB) testing revealed a clear preference among fans, players, managers and other personnel for the challenge system. The reason, in so many words, is that fans and baseball people still desire a human element of umpiring that involves feel for the game. In MiLB games featuring full ABS, walks were more prevalent, causing games to drag on (and countering the improvements in pace made by the pitch clock). Also, the art of pitch framing -- a craft catchers have studied and in many cases mastered -- would go away with full ABS. This is a change the players generally do not support. Were full ABS to come to the big leagues, it would be hard to put the toothpaste back into the tube. The challenge system is seen as a way to get more of the most important calls correct without dramatically altering the sport overnight. It is a middle ground between full ABS and tradition.
