Rotherham ended Coventrys unbeaten start to the season in emphatic style with a victory at the New York Stadium.
As riot conducted matt Crooks struck for Rotherham both sides of two Michael Smith penalties.
Coventry skipper Kyle McFadzean had a day to await its people, being sent off in addition to playing a part in giving both spot-kicks off.
The hosts were before 13 seconds as Crooks header was too powerful for Marko Marosi to keep out.
The lead was dropped in the 19th minute when Michael Smith fired home from the spot after Marosi after a short pass by McFadzean had triggered him.
Jake Hastie might have left a poor beginning even worse but that he was denied by Marosi and the rally from Crooks was kept out.
Rotherham did add a goal in the 58th minute when Smith netted his second penalty of the game.
After bringing Crooks clumsily, mcFadzean gave it away and that he was duly sent off by referee Darren Handley.
Yet another led to Rotherhams fourth goal in the 75th minute, with Crooks poking beyond Marosi later Michael Rose switched off at his feet.
