VATICAN CITY - Hours before the cardinals, chanting in procession, entered the Sistine Chapel on Wednesday for the start of the conclave, a telling aside occurred inside St. Peter's Basilica. A senior cardinal, seen on camera, offered "good luck" - twice - to the man widely seen as the front-runner to be next pope: the Italian prelate Pietro Parolin. But when the white smoke finally appeared Thursday after the fourth vote, it was not Parolin who greeted crowds from the balcony.

There is some conflicting reporting on whether new Pope Leo XIV is a Cubs or White Sox fan. Well, I just spoke with Augustinian friar Joseph Farrell. Last night, Farrell texted to ask. Pope Leo XIV responded — less than 4 hrs after being elected — with one word: “Sox.”

A pope from Chicago! Cardinal Robert Prevost. Pope Leo XIV.
