I'm still getting this weirdness. Started a new test league in 1870, over a 162 game season. 1870 had a lot of homers, but I realized that's because it doesn't kick in right away as you said. Thought I had it fixed for 1871 and beyond and told OOTP to use historical modifiers and player creations modifiers. This is what I got....

1870: AL - 475 homers, NL - 643
1871: AL - 21 homers, NL - 27
1872: AL - 789 homers, NL - 788
1873: AL - 20 homers, NL - 15
1874: AL - 754, NL - 713

The strange thing is that runs per game are really low. The leagues average a combined 2.7 rpg in 1874. That's a lot of solo homers. In fact, they both average MORE runs in 1873. Strikeouts and walks also move around big time season to season. The game can't decide what it wants to do.
