I haven't experienced this in 20 yet but I did have it come up in 19 and I was able to promote a minor league reliever who was from Denver, Colorado, which is where my (fictional) team is based (and where I live.) He was a September call-up and not someone who really belonged on a big league squad yet, but it satisfied my owner and that was that. (The guy was back in the minors the next Spring but the owner goals had moved on to other issues.)
But I think it is a great question just how exact the game is in this area as I had a few other players I could have brought up who were from areas of Colorado that aren't terribly far from Denver. Would they have fit the bill for my owner? I may never know. I'd love to hear if anyone knows how precise the hometown player designation is, geographically speaking, that is.
