The bookies are no doubt hoping that historical trends hold up and France advances.  Spain have won just one of their nine previous European Championship or World Cup quarter-finals outright.  Spain have never won a competitive game against France (L5 D1).

Elsewhere, the Tampa Bay Rays had been getting 87 percent of the betting action against Philadelphia as a -135 favorite.  Sportsbook.ag offers the preferred dime line for Major League Baseball betting.  This game was going off at 4:05 pm EST.  Tampa Bay vs. Philadelphia was not a heavily wagered MLB game overall however. 

The St. Louis Cardinals were getting solid betting action as a -129 favorite against Kansas City for their 2 pm EST game.  This was the most bet on side in Saturday afternoon’s baseball slate. 

The New York Yankees at -150 were the most wagered on team of the day outside of Spain in the Euro 2012.  In fact, New York was getting about 95 percent of the backing.
