賓果號碼大聲讀出得很好
Explanation:
calls: a bingo caller is the person who reads out the numbers during a game of bingo.
mean: slang, means very good. For example, "he plays a mean game of basketball" means he plays basketball very well

So, "calls a mean game of bingo" means that the person is very good at calling bingo. Why? Difficult to say. Maybe his or her voice is very clear, or maybe he or she keeps the game exciting.
