Answer:

A. the father, Chuck Bell

Step-by-step explanation:

This question is about "The Crossover" and narrates the final moment of the story that presents a strong symbolism and a moving resolution about the relationship between the narrator and his father. When the narrator compares the ball with a bird, it means that he saw it flying over the sky and somehow, for him, it symbolized the spirit of his own father, who despite being in the sky, was close to him.
