Cubs were playing in a deciding Game 5 of the NLDS against the Milwaukee Brewers on Saturday, October 11. After losing the first two games, the Cubs won Game 4 to tie the series at 2-2 and force the decisive matchup.

While extremely competitive, the Chicago Cubs are the lovable team, while the White Sox have often been viewed as the scrappy underdogs. 

Overall, a combination of historical success, location, cultural factors, and fan engagement has contributed to the Cubs' greater popularity compared to the White Sox.
