Does a relief pitcher who loses then regains the lead get a win?

Starting pitcher ends inning with a 3-1 lead. New inning, relief pitcher gives up two runs for a 3-3 tie. Bottom of that inning we go ahead and finish with a win. Which pitcher gets the W? Seems odd if the relief pitcher who blows the lead would get the W.
