In some cases, it's not even clear where the park was located.

Couldn't the descriptions of those ballparks be used with a little fictional imagination? Just use the information that is available. Maybe even take some fictional ballparks and adjust them to that era. There seems to be enough info for the game to set dimensions. Maybe some basic ones with just fences and gradually getting more complex with billboards of the day. It may not be exact but it would be better than nothing.
I wish i had the talent to do it.
