Baggett is
a retired computer consultant and he had a long career in
Derbyshire club cricket as a player and umpire. In a 46 year
playing career as a wicketkeeper-batsman, his career aggregates
totalled more than 1,200 dismissals and 20,000 runs. He has
represented Derbyshire at over-50 level and since 1986 has been on
the Umpires panel for County 2nd XI championship matches.
He
has made a significant contribution to the ACS as a proof reader
for every publication after 1989. He has the twin advantages of
having an encyclopaedic knowledge of cricket and has a sharp eye
for English grammar and punctuation. He estimated at the writer's
behest that he had detected more than 7,000 errors in the early
production stages of the first 50 ACS booklets that he handled -
leaving aside the Journal - and they ranged from inaccurate facts
to misplaced commas.
