The right answer is

“Unnatural and without any moves,

My notions of baseball and America

Growing fuzzier each time I whiffed”.

This excerpt best reflects how the character feels out of place in the environment he is in.

Explanation:

The poem talks about a guy who is trying to learn English and all the people he was around with were "writhing int he ground for one reason or another". His friends were laughing at his use of English and, after taking in the pain, he too was laughing. His reaction is important because he learned English by making mistakes and being ok with it. We can see how the author uses first person to narrate the poem to share directly what the main character is thinking and feeling.  

The right answer is

“Unnatural and without any moves,

My notions of baseball and America

Growing fuzzier each time I whiffed”.
