Answer:

A. John hit the baseball it went over the fence.

Explanation:

A. is the run on sentence, for it does not make sense as placed. It needs either a semi-colon, comma, or be split into two sentences.

I.e.:

John hit the baseball; It went over the fence.

John hit the baseball, it went over the fence.

John hit the baseball. It went over the fence.
