Athletics 5, Dodgers 4 (10 innings)
OAKLAND, Calif. -- Designated hitter Billy Butler lined a walk-off double to right field in the bottom of the 10th inning, leading the Oakland A's to a 5-4 victory against the Los Angeles Dodgers on Tuesday night at the O.co Coliseum.
First baseman Mark Canha led off the inning with a double down the left-field line off right-hander Yimi Garcia, his career-high fourth hit of the game. Butler ended the game with his double to right.
Canha went 4-for-5 with two doubles, drove in two runs and scored three times. Third baseman Danny Valencia went 2-for-5 and scored a run for the A's, and left-hander Fernando Abad (2-2) got the win, blanking the Dodgers for two-thirds of an inning.
Dodgers catcher A.J. Ellis went 1-for-1 with a three-run homer, walked a career-high tying four times and scored twice.
The A's snapped their season-high seven-game skid and ended the Dodgers' three-game winning streak.
The Dodgers' lead in the National League West over San Francisco fell to two games.
Dodgers left-hander Clayton Kershaw gave up one run and five hits over seven innings but got a no-decision. He struck out seven, walked two and threw 116 pitches, leaving the game with a 4-1 lead. In his previous six starts, Kershaw went 5-0 with a 0.75 ERA. He had pitched at least eight scoreless innings in five of those starts.
Oakland left-hander Felix Doubront allowed one unearned run and one hit over six innings in his first start since being traded to the A's for cash on July 31 by Toronto, which had designated him for assignment two days earlier. He struck out eight and walked six in a no-decision.
The Dodgers snapped a 1-1 tie in the top of the eighth inning when Ellis hit a three-run shot, his third home run of the season. After right fielder Yasiel Puig and pinch hitter Andre Ethier hit back-to-back two-out singles, Ellis sent reliever Fernando Rodriguez' first-pitch fastball over the left-center field wall. Puig left the game for a pinch runner because of right hamstring tightness .
The A's answered immediately with three runs in the bottom of the eighth. Valencia grounded a leadoff single to center off reliever Pedro Baez and moved to third on catcher Josh Phegley's double to left-center field. Canha followed with a two-run double to right-center, cutting the Dodgers' lead to 4-3.
A's shortstop Marcus Semien lined an RBI single to left with two outs off reliever J.P. Howell, making it 4-4. With runners on second and third, former A's right-hander Jim Johnson struck out center fielder Billy Burns to end the inning.

The A's struck first, scoring a run in the bottom of the second inning off Kershaw.
Canha lined a leadoff single to left and moved to second when Kershaw walked Butler. Right fielder Josh Reddick advanced the runners with a sacrifice bunt, and Canha scored on Semien's ground out to second base
The Dodgers pulled even with a run in the fifth.
Catcher A.J. Ellis worked a leadoff walk and moved to second when Doubront walked center fielder Joc Pederson. Both runners advanced on a passed ball, and shortstop Jimmy Rollins brought Ellis home with a ground out second base.
NOTES: Dodgers RHP Mat Latos was moved out of the starting rotation Tuesday and to the bullpen, where he'll stay throughout the team's eight-game road trip, manager Don Mattingly said. Latos had been scheduled to pitch Wednesday against the A's, but LHP Alex Wood will now start that game. The Dodgers have two off-days during their road trip, and the move allowed RHP Zack Greinke and LHP Clayton Kershaw to stay on their regular schedule. ... Oakland LF Coco Crisp (sore right hip/left ankle) was out of the starting lineup for the second straight game. He was injured Sunday against Baltimore during a collision with A's SS Marcus Semien. ... A's 3B/2B Brett Lawrie (sore back) was out of the lineup for the second straight game. "It gets out of alignment a little bit and has been some here recently," A's manager Bob Melvin said. ... New Dodgers third base coach Ron Roenicke made his debut Tuesday, replacing Lorenzo Bundy, who remained on the coaching staff.
