OAKLAND -- Billy Butler delivered a walk-off RBI double in the 10th, scoring Mark Canha and propelling the A's to a 5-4 win over the Dodgers in the first game of a two-game set at the Coliseum.
A.J. Ellis crushed a three-run blast in the eighth to give the Dodgers a 4-1 lead, but the A's stormed back with three of their own in the bottom of the frame, stringing together hits in five of six at-bats. Neither team scored a run in the ninth, but the A's improved to 5-9 in extra innings after Butler's timely hit.
