BOSTON — Alex Rodriguez got hit by a fastball from Boston starter Ryan Dempster in the second inning, setting off an angry scene at Fenway Park and leading to the ejection of New York Yankees manager Joe Girardi.

A-Rod answered with his bat four innings later by hitting his 649th career home run, prompting even more boos and derisive chants. The solo shot began a four-run, go-ahead inning that sparked the Yankees to a 9-6 win over the Red Sox.

The game turned testy, with the benches and bullpens clearing in the second and the teams being warned about beanballs.
