What teams put their baseball's in humidors?
Can you answer Pedroia the Destroya's question about humidors?:
I know the Rockies do.
I know the Rockies do.
I thought I read something about it being mandated recently??
Conflicting answers – anyone else?
Thanks!

Good question. My understanding was that baseball put a stop to the practice, and the Rockies no longer do this.
The Rockies did but not anymore.
I believe Coors Field is still the only Major League park to employ the humidor. They have been using it since 2002.
In an article on MLB.com, from 2007…
"Major League Baseball stopped short of mandating all teams adopt such an apparatus, but the move toward standardization will continue in 2007. All 30 clubs will be keeping their baseballs in temperature-controlled settings. "
I foudn no mention of any other humidity controlled storage for any other teams.
i think its just the rockies. the rangers popped into my head for some reason but i dont think so…
