Hats off to Pope Leo XIV for bringing a touch of Chicago to Vatican City. The newly installed pope is a devout fan of the Chicago White Sox. In fact, long before he was appointed the leader of the Catholic Church, he was filmed in the crowd of Game 1 of the 2005 World Series, which the White Sox won.

Chicago is hosting a citywide celebration and mass on Saturday for the first American-and Chicago-born Pope.

The White Sox celebrated the Pope's attendance by installing a mural and a "Pope Leo" jersey in the section where he sat during the World Series.
