Overview
- The club will offer a black-and-green hat shaped like a papal miter to fans who buy special tickets for the game against the Reds.
- The hats will be sent to buyers seated in five designated sections at Guaranteed Rate Field.
- The promotion is part of a larger slate of themed nights and ticket bundles, including Bravo Night in May, Emo Night, Pride at the Park in June, and other brand tie-ins.
- The White Sox have already honored Chicago-born Pope Leo XIV with a concourse mural near his 2005 World Series seat and a Mass at the ballpark.
- Reports describe his appearance at the August game as unlikely, framing the giveaway as a nod to a famous local supporter.
