Pope at the White Sox Game: A 2005 World Series Surprise Remembered

The Chicago White Sox recently unveiled a unique art installation at Guaranteed Rate Field, commemorating a memorable event from 2005. Pope Leo XIV, the 268th Pope of the Roman Catholic Church, surprisingly attended Game 1 of the World Series between the White Sox and the Astros. The installation marks his exact seat: section 140, row 19, seat 2. "It's amazing to think the Pope was here," said one White Sox fan interviewed for the video. The video also includes a clip of the game from that day. The White Sox's tribute is a testament to the unexpected and memorable moments that can occur in sports and a touching way to remember a historic event.
