The Diamondbacks' Paul Goldschmidt claimed the top spot in the first-base voting from the Dodgers' Adrian Gonzalez in the latest National League All-Star fan vote totals released by Major League Baseball on Sunday.

Goldschmidt, who has 15 home runs and 51 RBI, has 1,291,052 votes to Gonzalez's 1,049,222.

The other shakeup for a starting position in the July 15 All-Star Game at Target Field was in the outfield, as defending NL MVP Andrew McCutchen of the Pirates moved up two spots to second place, ahead of the Brewers' Carlos Gomez and the Marlins' Giancarlo Stanton. The Dodgers' Yasiel Puig remains atop NL outfielders with 1,942,701 votes. McCutchen has 1,727,534.

Rockies shortstop Troy Tulowitzki remained the NL's leading vote-getter, with 2,593,387. Voting for the game at Target Field closes July 3.
