Answer:

D).The score after six innings, if she remembered correctly, was 4 to 1.

Step-by-step explanation:

Use punctuation (comma, ellipsis, dash) to indicate a pause or break. It may be in the middle of a sentence or at the end of it. You can use commas, dashes, or ellipses to cue different types of pauses.
