The correct answer is C. Abbreviate

Explanation:

The period, also called full stop is one of the most common punctuation marks, this is used at the end of text, paragraphs or ideas to introduce a long pause and mark complete thoughts, But besides this use, the period is also used as part of ellipsis (...), in numbers and to abbreviate words which refers to shortening words, in this case most abbreviations that include the first/last letters of a word should end with a period and in some cases abbreviations that only use initial letters also include period. For example, the word "Mister" is commonly abbreviated as "Mr.", the word "December" is abbreviated as "Dec." and the term "United States of America" can be abbreviated as "U.S.A." Therefore, it can be concluded a period is also used to abbreviate words.

(Pitchers through at his head.)
Aneli [31]

C) Pitchers threw at his head.

This line "Pitchers through at his head." uses the incorrect "through". This "through" means to go in and out of something, like a doorway. I walked through the doorway into the other room. The sentence needs the "threw" that means to take an object with your hand and propel it to another location. Threw is the past tense of the word throw. It is an irregular past tense verb, so it doesn't follow the rule of adding /ed/ to create past tense.

And the editing has not begun because the email rough draft has not even been written. Hope this helped :) have a good day!
