Pope Leo Day turned into a Vatican-sized baseball buzz when the Chicago White Sox hosted a papal-themed game, complete with tiara hats and a “peace be with you” moment — all while losing in the 10th. The next day, Pope Francis personally brought up the game during a meeting with Rep. Raja Krishnamoorthi, shocking everyone — including the Sox, who sent him a souvenir hat and hoped he felt the electric crowd energy. Krishnamoorthi returned the favor with a Cubs jersey, hoping for blessings and maybe an all-Chicago World Series someday. It’s not the first time the Pope’s shown Sox love — he’s worn their hat at the Vatican and even met A.J. Pierzynski, who gave him a 2005 World Series ball.
