B Correct answer
Explanation

The verb 'belong' is a stative verb that cannot be used in continuous forms. 'I belong to the baseball team' (B) is correct in present simple. 'Am belonging' and 'belonging' are grammatically incorrect, and 'am belong' has the wrong auxiliary.

AI explanation

"Belong" is a stative verb expressing a fixed relationship (membership), so it takes the simple present tense rather than a continuous form. "Am belong"/"am belonging" incorrectly try to make it progressive, and "belonging" alone isn't a complete verb form here.
