I would say either the first or second sentence, because they both describe where he technically is. I would lean more towards #1, but the choice is really up to you.
I searched the excerpt which name is conversational ballgames and after I read it I got to the conclusion that it is organized the following way:
1. First, the author COMPARES the western-style conversation with the tennis game and she says that they are similar because in the western style when the person who is talking introduce a topic then she/he is expecting the other person to agree or disagree and keep talking about the reasons why, she says that she only doesn’t wait for you to agree or disagree, she expected more than that. Just like in the tennis game, if you throw the ball you expect from the other person to hit it back.
2. And then, when the author talks about Japanese-style conversation, she says that it isn’t like tennis or volleyball at all; there, she CONTRASTS the Japanese-style conversation with the two other games saying how different the games are from the Japanese-style.

3. It is character because it tells us bout her personality that she isn't the strongest but is determined to protect her little lambs. (She wasn’t the strongest sheep in the herd, but she was determined to protect them.)
4. It is plot because it has Exposition: (The story is about a young mermaid and her sister, who find a mysterious cave and decide to explore it) Rising Action: (In the cave, they discover an evil witch, who poisons the mermaid’s sister.) Climax: (The mermaid travels to find a magical octopus, whose ink is a cure for the witch’s poison.) Falling Action: (The mermaid returns with the ink.) Resolution: (She saves her sister.)
5. It is Setting because it tells us where this story is taking place (had a small shop in the middle of the village, where they would create the most beautiful shoes for the king.)
