Read the following passage and then choose the best revision for the underlined portions of the paragraph. The question requires to make decisions regarding the revision of the reading selection. Some revisions are not of actual mistakes, but will improve the clarity of the writing.

If someone asked you which professional sport has the most interesting athletes, what would you say? Terrell Owens, Deion Sanders and even Terry Bradshaw participated in the National Football League. Larry Bird, Michael Jordan, and Shaquille O'Neill all play hoops. The $\underline{\text{fiery temper of}}$ $^1$ . Eddie Belfour, Jeremy Roenick, and Marty McSorley existed only on ice rinks. But what about $\underline{\text{"baseball?"}}$ $^2$ Baseball is a sport usually played in the summer. Most professional baseball players seem $\underline{\text{to effect}}$ $^3$ relaxed demeanors, and the nature of the sport disallows the extremes that one might observe at a football game or a rugby match; however, one of the most unusual personalities ever to play sports did play baseball, and his name was Jimmy Piersall.

Unfortunately, Jimmy's rookie season was cut short by a nervous breakdown, which gave him a reputation for mental $\underline{\text{instability, that followed}}$ $^5$ him throughout his career. Piersall began his major league baseball career in $1952$ with the Boston Red Sox. In $1950$ and $1951$ , Piersall compiled batting averages of $.346$ and $.339$ , respectively, for Boston's minor league team in Birmingham, $\underline{\text{Alabama however, Piersall}}$ $^6$ was a centerfielder for Birmingham, and the Red Sox already had a major league star in center field-Dom DiMaggio, brother of the legendary Joe DiMaggio. Piersall switched to shortstop so that he could join the major league club, but Piersall's accomplishments on the field were overshadowed by his erratic, albeit laughable, behavior.

$\underline{\text{Irregardless of}}$ $^8$ Piersall's relative success at bat, his crazy behavior made headlines more often than his statistics did. During his rookie year, Piersall made waves by brawling with New York $\underline{\text{Yankee, Billy Martin,}}$ $^9$ in the clubhouse tunnel. From $1953$ onward, Jimmy stood out as a ballplayer by racking up hits and home runs, but he was still wont to display eccentric behavior on the field. On July $23$ , $1960$ , the day after a game in which Jimmy hit two home runs, he was ejected from a game for an unusual reason. During two of Ted Williams's at-bats for Boston, Piersall, then playing for Cleveland performed a "war dance" in center field meant to distract Williams. The umpires tolerated Jimmy's clowning until the eighth inning before they ejected him. This, however, was not the most infamous incident in Piersall's career.

Jimmy Piersall $\underline{\text{hit one home run while playing in the National League only.}}$ $^1$ $^1$ But most of his career was spent with the Red Sox, the Indians, and the California Angels, his most famous home run was the one he hit with the New York Mets-also the $100^{\text{th}}$ of his career. After Jimmy watched the ball leave the stadium, he $\underline{\text{runs around}}$ $^1$ $^2$ the bases backwards, which successfully irritated both Jimmy's manager and the baseball commissioner, not to mention the opposing pitcher. A few days later, the Mets released Piersall, and he signed with his last team, the Angels.

Athletes like Babe Ruth, Magic Johnson, Wayne Gretzky, and Emmitt Smith will be remembered for their accomplishments on the courts, fields, and rinks where their sports are played. Records for home runs, batting averages, points per game, and rushing yards in the memories of true sports fans. Other athletes will be remembered in other $\underline{\text{ways the ways}}$ $^1$ $^4$ in which their unorthodox mannerisms amuse and bewilder fans. Jimmy Piersall was an eccentric and memorable personality both on and off the field, and his name will long be a diverting chapter in the annals of baseball.

Reading The Dictionary of American Food and Drink may bring a few laughs or an upset stomach. Depending on your mood. Although it may not be surprising, some food names had comic beginnings. While others happened by accident. Still others originated from religious, artistic, or geographical terms. For example, Buffalo wings have nothing to do with the buffalo, as a matter of fact, they are deep-fried chicken wings served with a side order of hot sauce and blue-cheese dressing. In $1964$ in Buffalo, New York, Teressa Bellisimmo invented this savory snack. For her son and his visiting friends. Another example, perhaps one that is enjoyed as a mishap, is the origin of German chocolate cake the original recipe appeared in a Texas newspaper in $1957$ . The recipe called for Baker's German's Sweet Chocolate, the name Baker refers to Dr. James Baker, who helped to finance the first chocolate factory in the United States. The word German had nothing to do with the country. Because it actually refers to the creator of sweet chocolate, Samuel German. Incidentally, French fries probably aren't French either.
