Radio play-by-play tends to be more descriptive of the action than TV
audio; in many instances, the TV commentators -- primarily for
nationally-broadcast events -- tend not to be as familiar with a
team's personnel as the broadcasters who are featured on the
locally-originated broadcasts.

I remember my dad doing this in the 1960s to NFL and AFL football on
TV, and (of course) we didn't have these digital delays at the time.

One then turns the TV sound down...
