While manager Craig Counsell settled into a postgame Zoom session, the hooting and hollering audible from the clubhouse gave it away.\n\nIn Washington, the Nationals had rallied in extra innings to beat the Phillies. The Brewers, still in uniform following a 3-2 win over the Reds at Great American Ball Park, were in postseason position for the first time in weeks.\n\nIf the regular season ended Tuesday night, the Brewers (27-27) would be in the postseason as the National League's No. 8 seed. But the regular season did not end Tuesday night, as Counsell was quick to remind.\n\n• Box score\n\n“I don't think it matters that much where we're sitting right now,” said Counsell, whose club faces a tough rubber match against Trevor Bauer and the Reds on Wednesday night, then five games in four days at St. Louis. “When we went on the road trip, it was in front of us. We're playing the teams we're competing against. We know that's a way in. There's enough games left that you're going to lose a game and teams are going to win games. We still have to win games.”
