'BALL BOYS': Who's To Blame For The Orioles' Losing Streak? (VIDEO)

The stars of the ABC show and owners of Robbie's 1st Base in Lutherville talk about Baltimore's prospects of another under-performing season.

Robbie Davis, Jr. and Robbie Davis, Sr. are diehard baseball fans, making it difficult for them season after season to root for the Baltimore Orioles.

Still, their sports memorabilia shop— in Lutherville—is adorned with jerseys from Orioles greats like Eddie Murray, Brooks Robinson and Cal Ripken Jr. Even modern era players like Brian Roberts and Nick Markakis get a place on the shelf.

Now that the shop has been thrust into the spotlight by way of the ABC pawn-style reality show , thousands if not millions of fans have tuned into to see the Davis men talk sports and honor sports history.
