The pope, a White Sox fan as confirmed by his brother, was also spotted in the Rate Field stands (then U.S. Cellular Field) during Game 1 of the 2005 World Series against the Houston Astros. The “Don’t Stop Believin’” White Sox swept the Astros that year in the Fall Classic, winning their first World Series Championship since 1917.
