MILWAUKEE, May 2 (UPI) -- Tony Clark keyed a two-out, four-run rally with a two-run double in the eighth Friday, giving the Arizona Diamondbacks a 5-2 decision over Milwaukee.

The Diamondbacks erased a 2-1 deficit to end the Brewers' four-game winning streak. Arizona has won four out of six.

Carlos Villanueva (1-3), Milwaukee's third pitcher of the game, came on to start the eighth and quickly retired the first two batters he faced. Conor Jackson, however, drew a walk at the end of an eight-pitch at-bat and went to third on a single by Mark Reynolds.

Justin Upton reached on an infield single to score Jackson and Clark then came on to hit for Chris Young.

Clark hit Villanueva's first pitch to left, driving home Reynolds and Upton and putting Arizona in front. Clark scored the final run of the inning on Chris Snyder's base hit.

Tony Pena (3-0) earned the win with 1 2/3 innings of scoreless relief. Chad Qualls picked up his fifth save.
