CHICAGO -- The young-and-coming Chicago Cubs are having so much fun these days, they wish the season was just starting, not ending. Anthony Beauvillier Jersey . With five rookies in the lineup, the Cubs beat Milwaukee 6-2 on Wednesday night to complete their first three-game sweep of the Brewers since Aug. 23-25, 2004. Rookie Jorge Soler had a two-run double to become the second player in Cubs history with as many as 10 RBIs in his first seven games, while Kyle Hendricks pitched into the sixth inning to earn his fifth straight victory. "Theres a lot of energy," Hendricks said of the clubhouse these days. "When I came up, there wasnt a lack of energy, but its almost as if were expecting to win more, I guess. ... We won in the minor leagues, so weve had that bred into us that we need to win and want to win." Hendricks (6-1) received the Rookie of the Month Award for August before the game, then he limited the Brewers to two runs in 5 2/3 innings. The right-hander admittedly didnt have his best stuff -- he allowed nine hits -- but he didnt walk a batter and was able to get key outs. The Cubs batted around in the third, when they scored four times to take a 6-1 lead. Soler began the onslaught with a two-run double, his ninth and 10 RBIs of the season. The 22-year-old Cuban joined Mandy Brooks, who had 12 RBIs in 1925, as the only Chicago players to accomplish that feat. Welington Castillo followed with a run-scoring, ground-rule double, and one out later, rookie Logan Watkins hit an RBI single to cap the rally. "(Soler) has got a gift. He has got a good eye," manager Rick Renteria said. "If Kyle is my guy whos got a slow heartbeat on the hill, then maybe hes my guy who really slows it down in the box." Chicago never trailed after rookie Chris Valaika hit a two-run homer off ex-Cub Matt Garza to put it ahead 2-1 in the second. The blast to deep left field followed Watkins two-out single. "Its exciting to have all the young guys up here," Valaika said. "Hopefully, we can keep this going right into next year." Milwaukee concluded a 1-8 road trip with its eighth straight loss to fall three games behind St. Louis in the NL Central race. In his first start in 31 days, Garza (7-8) failed to get past the third inning. He had been on the disabled list because of a strained left oblique. The right-hander allowed six runs on eight hits and one walk. He also was the victim of some shoddy defence and a few well-placed hits. "Were not playing well enough to do it on our side, and (the Cubs) they are," Brewers manager Ron Roenicke said. "Theyre playing good baseball, and when you do, you get breaks."

General manager Jed Hoyer said Castro hoped to beat the 4-week prognosis to return but his season was likely over. ... 1B Anthony Rizzo remains out indefinitely with a strained lower back. ... 3b Mike Olt began a two-game rehab assignment with Class-A Kane County on Wednesday night. ... OF Ryan Sweeney (strained left hamstring) was transferred to the 60-day disabled list, which effectively ended his season. The contract of OF Ryan Kalish was selected from the Triple-A club.
