Major League Baseball wants to pick up the pace of games and commissioner Bud Selig has formed a committee to implement new rules in time for next season.

The goals of the committee will focus on decreasing the time of games and improving the overall pace of play.

Atlanta Braves president John Schuerholz will chair the committee, which also includes New York Mets general manager Sandy Alderson, MLBPA executive director Tony Clark, Boston Red Sox partner Michael Gordon, MLB commissioner-elect Rob Manfred, MLB executive vice president Joe Torre and Red Sox chairman Tom Werner.
