Comcast customers might not have Cubs’ Marquee Sports Network through spring training
Many Cubs fans won’t be able to watch Marquee Sports Network when it launches at 1 p.m. Saturday.
Of the big local cable and satellite distributors, AT&T (U-Verse, DirecTV and AT&T TV) and RCN customers can. Of the big streaming services, Hulu subscribers with Hulu + Live TV can, too.
But Comcast, the area’s largest cable distributor, hasn’t bought in yet.
Comcast spokesman Jack Segal confirmed the sides have been in discussions, but he added, “There’s still time before Opening Day.”
That’s March 26. So Comcast customers might miss out on spring training.
