The Chicago White Sox are honoring their famous fan, Pope Leo XIV, with a giveaway of White Sox-themed pope hats during their August 11 game against the Reds. Fans must purchase special tickets in designated sections at Rate Field to receive the hats. Born Robert Prevost, Leo is the first American-born pope and a lifelong White Sox supporter, having attended the 2005 World Series and openly celebrated the team during his papacy. Despite his support, the White Sox have struggled in the current season, losing five of their first six games.
