D
The paragraph shows a fan admiring the player (shouting “You’re my hero!” and seeking an autograph), which supports the inference that the fan might view the player as a hero because of qualities the fan admires. The other choices make unsupported negative or specific assumptions (A and B are not stated; C claims the admiration depends only on the home run).
