The pointing foul in baseball was for scoring purposes. The common scorebook used even showed an example of how to designate a caught foul fly, e.g., F7f. A description of Game 5 of the 1964 World Series contained "Maris fouled to K. Boyer for the final out."
It's like ground rule double—it's wrong, but it's right.
