Yankees pound Red Sox (Cheney booed) [View All]

[keta11]

NEW YORK (AP) - The New York Yankees made Boston's April dominance seem like distant history.

Gary Sheffield hit a three-run homer, Tony Clark hit a rare drive into the center-field bleachers and Javier Vazquez beat the Red Sox for the first time in his career, leading the Yankees to an 11-3 victory Tuesday night.

snip:

The Red Sox, who have lost six of nine overall, made three errors and allowed four unearned runs, raising their total to a major league-leading 58. Shortstop Nomar Garciaparra, who missed the April games with Achilles' tendinitis, was Boston's Achilles' heel, allowing Jeter's two-out grounder in the fourth to kick off the heel of his glove for his second error of the game.

snip:

Cheney, who visited both clubhouses after batting practice, watched part of the game from the box of Yankees owner George Steinbrenner and part from a first-row seat next to the Yankees dugout, where he sat between New York Gov. George Pataki and former New York City Mayor Rudolph Giuliani. Cheney was booed when he was shown on the right-field videoboard during the seventh-inning stretch.

But mostly it was a night of cheering in the ballpark.
