Sep 26, 2012, 2:10 AM | Updated: 5:44 am

Paul Goldschmidt has done it again.

The D-backs’ first baseman launched a three-run home run, the fifth of his career off of San Francisco Giants hurler Tim Lincecum, in the third inning of Tuesday’s game.

Lincecum has surrendered more home runs to Goldschmidt than any hitter in his career. The Giants’ right-hander allowed three of those five longballs to Goldschmidt this season.

The 25-year-old also boasts a .571 batting average and 10 RBIs against Lincecum.

Goldschmidt is hitting .288 with 19 home runs and 81 RBI for the D-backs this season.
