Tony Abreu had four hits and drove in a run and Kelly Johnson hit his 10th home run of the season as Arizona ended the road trip at 6-5, a marked improvement from its previous 1-5 trip.
Haren allowed three runs on seven hits with eight strikeouts to improve to 4-1 on the season. He threw 81 of his 111 pitches for strikes.
