How to get in_array values from multiple arrays?

Question

My output is like this:

Array ( 
[0] => Array (
 [type] => 1 
 [position] => main-widgets
 [key_position] => 3
 [code] => template/portfolio.inc 
) 
[1] => Array (
 [type] => 2
 [position] => main-widgets
 [key_position] => 3
 [code] => This is a code 
)

) `

How can I check if in_array(Array[position]=='main-header' Without using foreach?

This is my code:

if(in_array('main-header', array_column($PAGE['templates'], 'position'))) {
    $count = array_count_values($PAGE['templates']['position']);
    if($count['main-header']>1){
    echo 'multiple';
    foreach($PAGE['templates'] as $pos){
        if($pos['type'] == 1){
            require $base['basepath'].$pos['code'];
        }else {
            echo $pos['code'];
        }
    }
} else {
        echo 'Only 1';
        if($PAGE['templates']['type'] == 1){
            require $base['basepath'].$PAGE['templates']['code'];
        }else {
            echo $PAGE['templates']['code'];
        }
    }
}

PHP >= 5.5.0 needed for array_column() or use the PHP Implementation of array_column():

if(in_array('main-header', array_column($array, 'position'))) {
    //found
}

Or with array_map:

if(in_array('main-header', array_map(function($v) { return $v['position']; }, $array))) {
    //found
}

This just returns "1". What if found on multiple arrays? foreach is the only way? What i wanted is to find the arrays that in sub_array 'position' is the specific "title" and return the array values, or return to a variable
