The Cubs’ new Marquee Sports Network is slowly getting ramped up for carriage across the Midwest. Last month I reported the network had a deal with AT&T systems (which includes DIRECTV and U-verse) and Wednesday, the team and the network announced by press release deals for carriage by systems run by Mediacom in various parts of Illinois, Indiana and Iowa.
Mike McCarthy, general manager of Marquee Network, said in that release: “Being able to provide Cubs fans with access to Marquee Sports Network through Mediacom is incredible. As we near the launch of the network, we look forward to giving fans the in-depth Cubs content they want and deserve through multiple providers.
