Starting in inning 7 the challenge doesn't matter, the managers can politely ask the ump to review a play and the ump can decide yes or no.
Genuinely makes some sense, you don't want to have a game decided on something a review would obviously catch.
Understood. I think that could be a recipe for corruption, though, given that the umpire decides whether he wants a play reviewed with full knowledge of the team asking him, the standings, the big market teams, the in-game situation, etc.
