PHOENIX -- Brandon Drury hit a two-run homer, and pitcher Zack Godley kept the Milwaukee Brewers off balance as the Arizona Diamondbacks pulled out a 3-2 victory Saturday night.

With the Brewers leading 2-1 and two out in the sixth, Chris Owings singled and Drury hit his sixth home run on a 3-2 pitch off Junior Guerra to give the D-Backs (38-26) a 3-2 lead.

Hernan Perez hit a two-run homer and Guerra (1-1) allowed three runs and five hits in six innings for Milwaukee (33-30).

Godley (2-1) allowed two hits and two runs in 6 2/3 innings. He struck out four and walked one.

Andrew Chafin got the last out in the seventh inning and Archie Bradley retired the side in order on seven pitches in the eighth.

Closer Fernando Rodney picked up his 16th save.

The Brewers opened the scoring in the fourth inning when Godley hit Jesus Aguilar with a pitch and Perez followed with a line-drive homer over the left-field wall.

Meanwhile, the D-backs got nothing going early against Guerra.

Paul Goldschmidt walked in the first inning, extending a personal best by reaching base for the 37th straight game at Chase Field, a feat that ties Stephen Drew's 2009 club record. Goldschmidt reached second on a wild pitch but was promptly picked off by catcher Manny Pina (with the help of a successful video challenge by the Brewers).

In the fifth, Arizona's Rey Fuentes hit a sinking line drive to left that the Brewers Eric Thames misplayed into a triple. Then Godley hit a roller to shortstop that allowed Fuentes, who got a late start from third base, to barely beat the throw to the plate.

Home plate umpire Tripp Gibson called Fuentes out but was overruled after a D-backs' replay challenge, cutting the Brewers' lead to 2-1.

NOTES: Brewers 2B Jonathan Villar was placed on the 10-day disabled list Saturday after suffering a lower back strain Friday night while making a spectacular defensive play. Said manager Craig Counsell: "He's young, he's durable. Hopefully, he'll recover quickly." X-rays were negative. ... To replace Villar, the Brewers called up OF Lewis Brinson, considered the Brewers' top prospect, from Triple-A Colorado Springs. With a crowded upcoming schedule, including a doubleheader Tuesday in St. Louis, "There certainly will be spots for him to play," Counsell said. ... Diamondbacks RHP Taijuan Walker threw a bullpen session Saturday and for the first time took off the bandage that covered his blister during part of the session. Walker will be evaluated further before a decision will be made on when he starts pitching again. ... INF/OF David Descalso started his first straight game in left field in place of the injured Yasmany Tomas. ... RHP Zack Greinke's wife delivered a healthy baby, and Greinke will make his scheduled start Tuesday in Detroit.
