Meaning
This reads as a rule for fair commentary, not neutrality for its own sake. It points to the idea that strong broadcasting does not feel stamped onto one side, and a good call can leave both fan bases suspecting bias. In a close game, that balance matters because the audience wants energy without feeling pushed.

About John Smoltz
American former professional baseball pitcher
John Smoltz is an American former professional baseball pitcher who played in Major League Baseball from 1988 to 2009. He spent nearly all of his career with the Atlanta Braves, and later also played for the Boston Red Sox and St. Louis Cardinals. He was an eight-time All-Star and a central part of Atlanta’s strong starting rotation in the 1990s alongside Greg Maddux and Tom Glavine. That Braves group helped keep the team in contention for much of the decade and won the World Series in 1995. Smoltz also won the National League Cy Young Award in 1996 after going 24 and 8, a total that matched the most wins by an NL pitcher since 1972.
