The sentence that requires semicolons instead of commas is:

D. The captains of the high-school softball team are pitcher, Marisa Martino, outfielder, Rachel Morrison, and catcher, Lisa Fiore.

In this case, semicolons would help to separate the different roles and names more clearly, especially if the roles contain commas or if you want to clearly delineate the different groups.
