How should sentence 16 be changed?

Answer

Insert a comma after field

Insert a semicolon after field

Delete the comma after up

Leave the comma after up and add and

The original sentence without any punctuation after “field” reads: “The Dodgers entered the field to warm up, it turned out I was sadly mistaken.” In this form, it seems as though the sentence is connecting two separate thoughts without any clear transition or separation. By inserting a comma after “field,” the revised sentence becomes: “The Dodgers entered the field, to warm up, it turned out I was sadly mistaken.” This punctuation change provides better structure to the sentence. It separates the introductory clause “The Dodgers entered the field” from the subsequent clause “to warm up, it turned out I was sadly mistaken.”

The comma after “field” helps indicate that the second part of the sentence is providing additional information or context related to the Dodgers entering the field, which is why a comma is appropriate in this context. This change clarifies the sentence's meaning and makes it easier to understand.

Thus, option 1 is correct.
