Which sentence uses a participial phrase?

Question

A) The fence, which was broken and dirty, looked terrible.
B) Shutting out their opponent, the other team celebrated in victory.
C) Swimming in the pool all day is my favorite way to spend the summer.
D) I am pretty tired and not interested in staying up too late tonight.

I am thinking it is b because "shutting out their opponent" has a verbal use, which describes the verb "celebrated" more thoroughly. And you can transform that participial phrase into a dependent clause.

If it isn't please explain why. Thank you!

However ... it's modifying "team" not the verb.
