Brewers hit 4 HRs, win 8-2 against skidding D-backs

   PHOENIX (AP) -- Travis Shaw, Domingo Santana, Christian Yelich and Tyler Saladino homered in the first four innings off Matt Koch, and the Milwaukee Brewers routed the Diamondbacks 8-2 on Wednesday to take two of three in Arizona.

   Brandon Woodruff (2-0) held the sputtering Arizona offense to one hit in five innings, Daniel Descalso's two-run homer.

   Shaw, who has a team-high 10 home runs, also doubled and scored. The Brewers have won three of four, outscoring their opponents 23-9.

   Arizona finished a 1-6 homestand and has lost seven of eight heading into a nine-game trip. The game drew 16,762, the smallest home crowd for the Diamondbacks this season.

   Koch (2-2) allowed eight runs and nine hits in 4 1/3 innings, his poorest outing since moving into the rotation after Taijuan Walker underwent Tommy John surgery. Koch had faced Clayton Kershaw, Justin Verlander and Max Scherzer in his previous three starts; Arizona won two of those games.

   Woodruff, in the rotation because of the rash of injuries to Brewers starters, struck out six and walked four.

   Shaw and Santana hit two-out drives in the first as Milwaukee took a 3-0 lead, but Descalso homered in the bottom half.

   Yelich hit a two-run homer in the second, and Santana's leadoff shot in the fourth put the Brewers ahead 6-2.

   Jesus Aguilar singled and Shaw doubled to chase Koch. Santana had an RBI groundout against T.J. McFarland, and Jonathan Villar hit a run-scoring double.

   TRAINER'S ROOM

   Brewers: OF/1B Ryan Braun missed his third straight game with back tightness.

   Diamondbacks: 3B Jake Lamb (shoulder) was scheduled to make another rehab start Wednesday night for Class A Visalia and could join the big league club this weekend in New York.
