Pope Leo asks fan 'Sox or Cubs?' as he signs a baseball

Quote

“White Sox or Cubs?”

Those were the first words out of Pope Leo XIV’s mouth when he greeted Jason Perash in a receiving line at the Vatican’s Paul VI Audience Hall Monday morning.

“Uh, Sox,” answered Perash, a 46-year-old attorney and sometimes freelance journalist who presented the new pontiff with a Rawlings Official Major League Baseball and asked him to sign it.

Leo, who is reportedly a lifelong Sox fan, complied, inscribing the ball in blue ink with “Leone PP XIV”—his official papal autograph in Latin—right on the sweet spot.

That’s some shitty handwriting lol.

To be fair to him, he did just take on a new name at the age of 69.
