There are still a couple big fish out there to close deals with, but the Marquee Sports Network will officially be available on Hulu+ Live TV.
The deal with Hulu was announced on Monday morning.
So, the Cubs get one of the two biggest streaming services in the fold and this will obviously put pressure on YouTube TV, but more importantly on Comcast, which is used by half of the cable users in Chicago.
As for Hulu+ Live TV users, they’ll immediately have access to the network when it launches on Saturday.
