The commissioner's office has told all 30 teams for the first time that balls must be stored at a uniform temperature after they are delivered from the manufacturer.

"The specifications that Rawlings recommends are a 70-degree temperature and 50 percent humidity," baseball senior vice president Joe Garagiola Jr. said Friday.

baseballs don't wear uniforms, so what difference does it make what temperature they are?

You might want to think about that a little. the rockies will likely still need a humidor to keep their baseballs at 50 percent humidity. ambient humidity in denver in the summertime is frequently below 50 percent.
