The Chicago White Sox, the team which Pope Leo XIV rooted for in his life before the Vatican, plans to honor him where he sat during the 2005 World Series.
On Monday, Vice President JD Vance met with Pope Leo XIV at the Vatican, where he gifted the Chicago-born pope a custom Bears jersey, according to CBS News. It included his name (Pope Leo) and number (naturally, XIV). “Good choice,” he told Vance when he received the jersey.
