The gentlemen of Robbie's First Base in Timonium share their thoughts on the Super Bowl.
The Davis men seldom agree when it comes to sports. And that's the way we like it. This week, however, they are united in their belief that the Ravens will bring back a Super Bowl trophy to Baltimore. For the uninitiated, Robbie Davis, Sr. and Robbie Davis, Jr. are the stars of Ball Boys, an ABC pawn-style reality show filmed at their memorabilia shop Robbie's First Base in Timonium. Looking around the shop on West Ridgely Road, one could make the argument that the Davis boys could retire on their signed helmets, balls and posters should the Ravens beat San Francisco Sunday. Patch dropped by the stop Friday to chat with Senior and Junior about the game itself, Randy Moss's controversial comments and who they think will be the Super Bowl …

The stars of the reality show "Ball Boys," filmed in Timonium, share their advice for those collecting and hanging onto to No. 52's signature.
It's no surprise the Robbies of Robbie's 1st Base have seen a surge in Ray Lewis memorabilia sales since the star linebacker announced his retirement. The little shop off of Ridgely Road in Timonium has been selling thousands of dollars worth of Ray Lewis's signature. Helmets, photos, footballs—all emblazoned with a future Hall of Famer's signature mean big bucks for the savvy collector. But there are few things to know before investing in a "RL52." Watch the video above to see what the experts have to say. First and foremost, whatever you currently own or pickup from a local memorabilia shop, you should hang on to it for at least five years. Watch the video to find out why. Second, although equally important, collectors should keep track …

The reality show stars and owners of Robbie's First Base in Timonium lament the death of the late Baltimore Ravens owner, who brought football back to Charm City.
It's hard to tell which is more surprising: that Robbie Davis, Sr.—owner of Robbie's First Base—didn't know Art Modell personally, or that he and has son—with whom he stars in the ABC reality show Ball Boys—agreed that the late sports icon was the most influential living NFL team owner of all time. Davis Sr. and his son Robbie Davis, Jr. together own the popular sports memorabilia shop in Timonium that has become the subject of the ABC reality pawn series Ball Boys. Each episode features a different sports icon that Senior has developed a friendship with over the years through his shop and previously owned car dealership. The father and son's loud disagreements on all topics relating to sports have also become a staple of the series. But …

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—Robbie's 1st Base 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 Ball Boys, thousands if not millions of fans have tuned into to see the Davis men talk sports and honor sports history. That is why, Patch checked in with "Junior" and "Senior" (their show monikers) to see who they think is to blame for the Orioles…

What did you think of the show?
UPDATE—A Lutherville business made its nationally televised debut this weekend. Did you watch? What did you think? Tell us in the comments section below. ORIGINAL—The owners and employees from Robbie's 1st Base are currently in New York, hours away from the premiere of Ball Boys on ABC. The show has been compared to a sports-specific Pawn Stars-type reality show. Instead of expert historians verifying the authenticity of wares, professional athletes are flown in to approve their own signatures. Patch has been writing about Robbie 1st Base for weeks, since January. I checked in with Robbie Davis Sr. and Robbie Davis Jr. about where they'd like to see Peyton Manning end up (VIDEO). I also questioned their NCAA tournament brackets (VIDEO). …
