Solution

The correct option is A The children's baseball bats and balls had been left in their uncle's patio.
According to general rule, the possessive of singular nouns and plural nouns that do not end in s, use an apostrophe followed by s. However, the plural of nouns, like bat and ball, do not require an apostrophe.
Thus, according to the rules, the correct answer will be Option A. The remaining options are incorrect.
