Contreras went 1-for-1 with a solo home run in Saturday's 2-1 loss against the Athletics.
Victor Caratini started the game at catcher and went 1-for-4 with a stolen base, but Contreras pinch-hit for Rowdy Tellez in the bottom of the eighth and smoked a game-tying solo home run off left-hander reliever Richard Lovelady.
