YOU SAID:

To Pope Leo XIV I hope you are well. I am writing to apologize for calling you a “mere Red Sox fan” earlier. My words were tactless and disrespectful, and I sincerely apologize for any offense I may have caused. As the new leader of the Catholic Church, you have a great responsibility and are respected by millions around the world. My words cannot express the respect you deserve and the spirit of unity that sports can foster among us. I understand your argument about your loyalty to baseball. And the love of fans, whether they are White Sox or not. I did not mean to belittle that. My deepest apologies. I respect your position and your values. Thank you very much. Sincerely,

INTO JAPANESE

レオ14世教皇様、お元気でお過ごしのことと思います。先ほど「単なるレッドソックスファン」と呼んだことをお詫び申し上げます。私の言葉は無神経で失礼であり、不快な思いをさせてしまったことを深くお詫び申し上げます。カトリック教会の新しい指導者として、あなたは大きな責任を担い、世界中の何百万人もの人々に尊敬されています。
