MILWAUKEE -- An eight-run fifth inning, highlighted by a three-run home run from Travis Shaw, pushed the Milwaukee Brewers past the New York Mets for an 11-4 victory Saturday evening at Miller Park.

Shaw and Domingo Santana each finished with three hits for the Brewers, who combined for 16 on the day -- including seven in the fifth inning.

All that offense helped Zach Davies (4-2) earn his fourth consecutive victory, despite battling his command over five innings. Davies allowed four runs on seven hits and a walk with a home run and two hit batters.

Robert Gsellman (2-3) was charged with six runs -- five earned -- on nine hits and three walks with three strikeouts in four-plus innings.

Gsellman worked out of a bases-loaded jam in the fourth to maintain New York's 3-2 lead.

Neil Walker added an insurance run with a solo home run in the fifth inning but Gsellman loaded the bases to open the bottom half and gave up an RBI single to Keon Broxton, bringing his day to an end.

Orlando Arcia drove in two more with a long single to the wall in left off Hansel Robles that put Milwaukee ahead 5-4 and pinch hitter Jesus Aguilar made it 7-4 with a two-run double to left.

Robles struck out Villar for the first out of the inning but walked Eric Thames, and Shaw broke the game open by crushing a 1-0 fastball to right for a three-run shot -- his eighth home run of the season.

Milwaukee added one more in the seventh on Villar's second RBI single of the day.
