ABC7 Chicago and the Cubs have had a deal to carry about 25 games since 2015. This is the final season of that deal, along with it being the final year for WGN-TV and NBC Sports Chicago carrying Cubs games. All Cubs games (save national games on Fox-TV or ESPN) will be shown on the Marquee Sports Network beginning in 2020.
The Cubs-Reds game originally scheduled for 7:05 p.m. Tuesday on ABC-7 is getting bumped to the newly rebranded CW-26, a move bound to confuse even some diligent viewers who try to stay abreast of which TV outlet is carrying the Cubs on a given day.
