    catcher: 11 pitcher: 12

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Since the numbers are consecutive, the square root of the product will be a value between them.

    √132 ≈ 11.49

    so, the consecutive numbers are 11 and 12. (11*12 = 132)

    The catcher's number is smaller, so is 11; the pitcher's number is 12.
