I would assume that if (for example) your ML parks average a .9 for home runs, you'll just hit fewer home runs than you would in the 'real' majors.

That's what I've done for my Oriental universe. The parks with the highest batting average and home run modifiers, lowest double and triple modifiers, and smallest dimensions and lowest fences are at the lowest levels of play. At the IL level extra base hits are more common, but singles and homers less so, and every team plays in a canyon with very high walls. I'm hoping this will counter the game's tendency to have minor leaguers hit .200 with 6 homers for the season.
