MILWAUKEE, Sept. 25 (UPI) -- George Kottaras drove in two runs and Ryan Braun homered Sunday in the Milwaukee Brewers' 9-5 victory over Florida.

Chris Narveson (11-8) earned the victory, surrendering four runs on five hits over 6 1/3 innings as the National League Central champion Brewers set a franchise record with their 55th home win.

Milwaukee swept their seven-game season's series with Marlins for the first time since 1998 -- the Brewers' initial season in the NL.

Florida's Ricky Nolasco (10-12) was lit up for seven runs (six earned) on nine hits in just two-plus innings.

The Marlins got homers from Emilio Bonifacio and Donnie Murphy.
