MARQUEE SPORTS NETWORK ANNOUNCES GAME BROADCAST PLANS FOR 2021 SEASON Excluding national broadcasts, network to air all regular season games and all Spring Training home games; Chris Myers, Pat Hughes and Beth Mowins to broadcast select games February 17, 2021 CHICAGO – Marquee Sports Network today released its 2021 Chicago Cubs broadcast schedule and announced that Chris Myers, Pat Hughes and Beth Mowins will serve as play-by-play broadcasters for select games this season, filling in for Jon “Boog” Sciambi. Sciambi, entering his first season with Marquee Sports Network, will serve as play-by-play announcer for the vast majority of games, working alongside color analyst, Jim Deshaies. Excluding national broadcasts, Marquee Sports Network will air every regular season game, including the regular season opener April 1 vs. Pittsburgh, and all Spring Training home games at Sloan Park, beginning March 2 vs. Kansas City. “We are thrilled with these additions to the broadcast booth,” said Marquee Sports Network General Manager, Mike McCarthy. “We’re looking forward to our first season with ‘Boog’ on the call, and are thrilled to have Chris Myers, Pat Hughes and Beth Mowins as play-by-play broadcasters for select games. Chris, who has been with us since the launch, was scheduled to call games with us last season, but due to our precautionary approach to the pandemic, we were unable to make that happen. Pat is a legendary voice in Chicago who we are thrilled to bring to the TV viewers, and Beth is a groundbreaking announcer known to audiences for her NFL and collegiate work on ESPN. We are confident that all three will bring a tremendous energy to the broadcast booth this season.” Chris Myers is an Emmy Award-winning broadcaster and regular play-by-play commentator on Fox NFL Sundays, holding more than 30 years of experience at the highest levels of sport, including the World Series and Super Bowl for Fox Sports. He also contributes to NASCAR on Fox coverage, hosting weekly live coverage from the track. He contributes to Marquee Sports Network as the host of Chris & presented by Blue Cross Blue Shield of Illinois, a monthly interview show featuring in-depth Tell conversations with sports stars. -MORE ON PAGE 2- -PAGE 2- “Calling baseball games is a bonus for any broadcaster, but calling Cubs games stirs a rich history and the true fan in all of us,” Myers said. “Over the years as a spectator and announcer my experiences at Wrigley Field and with the Cubs have always been special, which is why it's an honor to be even more closely involved in bringing the game to fans of one of the most iconic franchises in sports.” Pat Hughes is the Chicago Cubs radio play-by-play voice for 670 The Score, entering his 26th season calling Cubs games. He is a nine-time recipient of the Illinois Sportscaster of the Year Award and in 2017 was the recipient of the Ring Lardner Award for Excellence in Sports Journalism in the broadcast category. Prior to joining the Cubs, he spent 12 seasons on the Milwaukee Brewers radio network from 1984-95. In 1983, he served as the TV voice of the Minnesota Twins. "Cubs television play-by-play has always been a special position, going back to the days of Jack Brickhouse and Harry Caray, both Hall of Famers,” said Hughes. “I'm very much looking forward to it." Beth Mowins, who will become the first woman to serve as play-by-play announcer in Chicago Cubs history, has been a broadcaster for ESPN since 1994, calling primarily men’s and women’s college sports, and in 2017 she became the first woman in 30 years to call a National Football League game. She has been the voice of the Women’s Softball College World Series for more than 20 years. She earned her master’s in communications from Syracuse University and was inducted into the Greater Syracuse Hall of Fame in 2009. “It’s an honor and a privilege to work with such a beloved and historic franchise as the Chicago Cubs,” Mowins said. “I am thrilled to be a part of the team at Marquee Sports Network and am looking forward to working alongside some of the best in the business this season.” “We are looking forward to another great season broadcasting Cubs games,” said Marquee Sports Network SVP Programming and Production, Michael Santini. “We are excited to be welcoming in these new voices, including ‘Boog’, and are eager to get the season underway.” The full broadcast schedule is attached.

    Castrovince | October 23Rd, 2016 CLEVELAND -- the Baseball Season Ends with Someone Else Celebrating

    C's the day before: Chicago, Cleveland ready By Anthony Castrovince / MLB.com | @castrovince | October 23rd, 2016 CLEVELAND -- The baseball season ends with someone else celebrating. That's just how it is for fans of the Indians and Cubs. And then winter begins, and, to paraphrase the great meteorologist Phil Connors from "Groundhog Day," it is cold, it is gray and it lasts the rest of your life. The city of Cleveland has had 68 of those salt-spreading, ice-chopping, snow-shoveling winters between Tribe titles, while Chicagoans with an affinity for the North Siders have all been biding their time in the wintry winds since, in all probability, well before birth. Remarkably, it's been 108 years since the Cubs were last on top of the baseball world. So if patience is a virtue, the Cubs and Tribe are as virtuous as they come. And the 2016 World Series that arrives with Monday's Media Day - - the pinch-us, we're-really-here appetizer to Tuesday's intensely anticipated Game 1 at Progressive Field -- is one pitting fan bases of shared circumstances and sentiments against each other. These are two cities, separated by just 350 miles, on the Great Lakes with no great shakes in the realm of baseball background, and that has instilled in their people a common and eventually unmet refrain of "Why not us?" But for one of them, the tide will soon turn and so, too, will the response: "Really? Us?" Yes, you. Imagine what that would feel like for Norman Rosen. He's 90 years old and wise to the patience required of Cubs fandom.

    994-3214 Chicago Cubs Clinch Postseason Appearance

    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE For more information, contact: Alison Heitman (847) 994-3214 CHICAGO CUBS CLINCH POSTSEASON APPEARANCE, BACKED BY SLOAN AS WATER EFFICIENCY PARTNER FRANKLIN PARK, IL – Major League Baseball's postseason is here, and the Chicago Cubs have clinched a playoff spot for the first time since 2008. The team, its fans and the City of Chicago gear up for the postseason with great excitement and anticipation. On October 7, the Cubs will face the Pittsburgh Pirates for a Wild Card game to begin their postseason journey. "Congratulations to the Cubs. We're proud to be a Legacy Partner and the Cubs' Official Water Efficiency Partner," said Sloan President, Graham Allen. Back in March of this year, the Chicago Cubs and Sloan joined forces and established Sloan as the team's Official Water Efficiency Partner. As part of this relationship, Cubs Spring Training Facility in Mesa, Arizona, was named Sloan Park. While the Legacy Partnership between the Cubs and Sloan is new this year, Sloan products have been in use at Wrigley Field since 1914 – back when it was known as Weeghman Park. Sloan continues to help the Cubs organization expand its ongoing sustainability efforts and improve the fan experience at Sloan Park and Wrigley Field in Chicago. The company's expertise will be particularly helpful in the ongoing water-sustainability efforts in the Arizona area. "Sloan is passionate about providing intelligent water solutions to the communities we serve. We are excited to have a major presence both in Chicago and Mesa to authentically convey the message of water sustainability," said Sloan President, Graham Allen.
