As rare as a no-no

In case you were wondering...

My friends at Retrosheet.org tell me that the Mets have NEVER (as in NEVER) won a game via walk-off pickoff.

So close...

Oh, Barry Lyons... not a walk-off pickoff, but it led to a walk-off loss:

Is this the last time it happened to anyone?

The Yankees also lost a game to the Cubs on a Joe Borowski walk-off pickoff in 2003.
