It's a list of every Mets regular-season walk-off (minus the "asterisk" game), indexed by player, from 1962 to 2005. The information was compiled by someone with major "Retrosheeting" skills and is part of a site that contains not only a list of walk-offs, by player, by team, but a great deal more entertaining information.

Enjoy, but not too much!!

Those who Chase the Mets know...That since hit streaks will be talked about a great deal these next 3 days (see Chase Utley, 35 games, ongoing) we can tell you that the only Mets player to have a walk-off hit in the midst of a hitting streak lasting 20 or more games is Cleon Jones, whose 14th inning walk-off triple (a one of a kind occurrence in Mets history) beat the Phillies on September 10, 1970. The hit extended his hit streak to 18 games. It would conclude at a then-club record, since broken, 23 games.

A walk-off hitting-streak question: has a player ever had a hitting streak end when he was due to bat in the 9th but a batter before him wont he game with a walk-off?

Yes, that's how luis castillo's 35-game hit streak ended...

Maybe our esteemed host can help out the publisher of the list, in updating the 10/3/99 entry "of unknown play". All true Mets fans know that was the game that sent us to the play-offs in 1999 at Shea. Piazza at the plate, ball goes to the backstop (PB or WP I am not sure, though my money's on WP.

Also noticed that it has been some time since we won a walk off without an RBI.

In total games we would break the record either late this year or early next. But our MWO host will likely have the number soon.
