On a day when all the A’s affiliates went down to defeat, designated hitter Daniel Susac turned in the best performance at the plate among A’s prospects. The former 1st-round pick went 3 for 4 while drilling a pair of doubles, giving him 11 on the season, and scoring a run in the losing cause as the Aviators saw their twelve-game winning streak snapped on Saturday. Susac is now batting .304 while sporting a .541 slugging percentage in 48 games for the Aviators this season. Third baseman Brett Harris singled and walked twice, while shortstop Darell Hernaiz doubled, and second baseman Zack Gelof went 1 for 3, drew a walk and scored twice in his third rehab game with Las Vegas. Starter Luis Morales was charged with 6 runs in just 2 1/3 innings of work to suffer the loss, while RHP Joey Estes, who was activated from the injured list on Saturday, threw 3 scoreless and hitless innings in relief for the Aviators.
