"It's very simple. We are asking baseball to come clean and set the record straight. Either baseball officials seriously want to rid their sport of doping, or they want to brush the issue under the carpet. So far, we haven't seen much evidence of the former"

This quote by Richard Pound is describing the use of performance-enhancing drugs in baseball. He is asking the officials of the sport to take a position on the problem and make it clear whether they are serious about eliminating doping or if they are simply trying to neglect it. Pound is implying that up until now, the officials have actually not taken any significant action to attend to the issue, which recommends that they are more thinking about avoiding the problem than really resolving it. He is getting in touch with them to decide and show that they are dedicated to cleaning up the sport and making it a fair and truthful video game.
