In-text MLA citations should include the author's last name and page number when available. The citation must be after the quotation, but outside of the quoted text. The citation should be in parenthesis and not include a comma between the author's last name and page number. The comma is extraneous. In order to make it clear that the parenthetical citation belongs to the quoted text and not the sentence following, there needs to be a comma after the citation - not before.
A. I ate a slice of bread last night.
B. Sita lost her earring in the park
C. I sold my watch to him last month
