Explanation:

Pronouns are part of speech used to replace previously mentioned nouns (in most cases) in order to avoid unnecessary repetition.

When using pronouns, one should be careful to do so in a clear manner, to avoid ambiguity.

Using two (or more) nouns in the first part of the sentence might pose the question to which of them the pronoun refers.

In sentence A) we don't know whether Jameson broke the tray or his foot.

Sentence C) doesn't help us determine who won; Jared or Jesse.

Similarly, sentence D) leaves unanswered the question to whom the pronoun "she" refers; Jillian or Josie.

Only sentence B) is clear enough; the pronoun "it" replaces the noun "a ball".

It is also good to remember that the noun replaced by a pronoun is called antecedent. So, "a ball" is clear antecedent for the pronoun "it" in sentence B).
