SAN DIEGO, Aug. 2 (UPI) -- Oscar Salazar had a pinch-hit, sixth-inning RBI double Saturday as the San Diego Padres beat the Milwaukee Brewers 4-2.

With the score tied 2-2, Everth Cabrera scored from third base when Milwaukee's Ryan Braun misplayed Salazar's one-out fly ball into the double.

Tony Gwynn Jr., Kevin Kouzmanoff and Will Venable each had two hits and one RBI for the Padres, who have won five in a row.

Venable homered for the third consecutive game.

The winner was reliever Greg Burke (3-3).

Closer Heath Bell earned his 26th save with a scoreless ninth.

Casey McGehee had two of the four hits and one RBI, and Prince Fielder hit a solo homer for the Brewers, who have lost five of seven.

The losing pitcher was starter Mike Burns (2-4).
