NEW YORK - Bill Mueller hit a three-run shot for one of Boston's four homers and the Red Sox routed the New York Yankees 11-2 Friday night in their first game at Yankee Stadium since last year's thrilling AL championship series.
Kevin Millar, Mark Bellhorn, and Manny Ramirez also homered for the Red Sox, who roughed up Jose Contreras (0-2).
Derek Lowe (2-1) took a shutout into the seventh for Boston, allowing two runs on six hits over six innings.
After going 1-for-17 in Boston last weekend, Alex Rodriguez had two hits but was booed after a pair of groundouts.

Billy Koch (1-0) pitched a scoreless 10th.
Twins 7, Royals 5
