Bruce Miles has covered sports in the Chicago area for more than 40 years. In October 2019, he completed a 22-year run as Chicago Cubs beat writer for the Daily Herald in Arlington Heights, Illinois. Miles covered Kerry Wood's 20-strikeout game, the Sosa-McGwire home run race in 1998, and is one of a handful of Chicago media members who can say he was there when the Cubs won the World Series. Jesse Rogers has been part of the Chicago sports media scene since the mid 90's. He covered the Chicago Blackhawks for ESPN when they broke their championship drought in 2010 and was an insider on the Cubs beat when they won the World Series in 2016. He's been a television, internet, and radio reporter for ESPN since 2009 and was previously heard on 670 The Score as a longtime studio host for Blackhawks radio broadcasts.Dimensions (Overall): 8.86 Inches (H) x 6.33 Inches (W) x 1.03 Inches (D)
