Answer:

A. working memory

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi! The player is using the working memory, which is the ability to keep information in the "head" to be able to use it while, for example, he is driving. In order to remember how to get there, he applied a set of processes that allows him to save and process the information in a short period of time. This type of memory integrates new information that has occurred in a short time, such as directions on how to get to the ballpark.
