It will probably be a squeaker, but I see the Reds winning. The Yankees are more a homer play. I have been a Yankees fan since I was born. Wang DOES scare me tomorrow, being a sinker ball pitcher. Sinker ball pitchers get destroyed to leave the ball up in the zone, and struggle with their control early in the year. On the positive side though, they won 15 out of 16 opening days at Yankee Stadium, and it's the last year that they will open in the "House that Ruth Built". I have to think even if Wang falters, the bats and pen will more than make up for it.
