The correct answer is C. The league produced many fine players, including Mary “Bonnie” Baker and Dorothy Kamenshek.

Explanation:

In the passage presented both sentence (11) and sentence (12) aim at providing the reader with examples on the players the AAGPBL produces, in the case of sentence (11) Mary "Bonnie" Baker is mentioned and sentence (12) adds Dorothy Kamenshek was equally a fine player that emerged from this women softball club, this implies both women are equally important, because of this both names should be linked by adding the conjunction "and", considering this conjunction expresses a relationship of equality between the element it joints. Besides this to show the reader these women are examples of the results of the softball club it is necessary to the word "including" and it is already clear they are examples of "many fine players" is not necessary to add any further information after the name of both women. Thus, the correct way to combine sentence (11) and (12) is "The league produced many fine players, including Mary “Bonnie” Baker and Dorothy Kamenshek" because it expresses both women are examples of fine players of the league and are in the same level.
