I'm not sure why you would have seen these results. Did you have dynamic league evolution enabled? If that's enabled, your league can start to develop more power overall, or more pitching, or any number of random possibilities.
Using development and no recalc with historical minors, I haven't seen anything like what you're describing. I just ran a game a few months ago, testing to see how players such as Brady Anderson, the Bash Brothers, and other batters produced home runs during the late 80s and early 90s. All of my home run totals were perfectly realistic.
You might want to check your league settings and your league total and talent modifiers, to see if everything is historically sound, or if there is an incorrect or evolved setting somewhere.
