The Fox Sports camera could have panned to any fan during the ninth inning of Game 1 of the 2005 World Series; it randomly landed on the future Pope Leo XIV.

Pope Leo XIV is truly a die-hard White Sox fan, as he looked as nervous as anyone watching his team try to close out Game 1 of the 2005 World Series.

Prevost, 69, is a Chicago native. He chose Leo XIV as his papal name. After some initial confusion, Prevost was confirmed to be a White Sox fan by his brother, John. He's not a Cubs fan. In fact, Prevost is such a big White Sox fan that he was at Game 1 of the 2005 World Series at what is now known as Rate Field.
