Rikishi Talk - Day 10, Hatsu 2013

[Kyokuhagyo]

Tochinowaka, after one year kachi-koshi in makuuchi again: "Finally, eh? Also today I only thought about the first day's plan, about not stopping my feet."
栃乃若　幕内では１年ぶりの勝ち越し。「やっとですね…。きょうも初日のつもりで、足を止めないことだけ考えた」

Masunoyama, the day after getting caught in a henka next day that awaited the order (?? - I know Masunoyama got henka'd the previous day), he himself moving to the side at the tachi-ai and escaping a 6th consecutive loss, reflecting: "I was tense, so regrettably my body responded like this."
舛ノ山　注文にはまった翌日は、自身が立ち合いに変わって６連敗を免れる。「きつかったので、体が反応してしまった」と反省。

Shouhouzan, make-koshi as shin komusubi, unconcernedly: "Well that was expected. (?) Well, this is about how it usually goes. From here on the important question is to what extent I can limit the number of losses."
松鳳山　新小結で負け越し。「まあこんなもん。ここからどれだけ（黒星を）最小限に食い止められるかが大事」と淡々。

Harumafuji, first double-digit wins as yokozuna: "It's a result I did with utmost effort. As there are 5 more days left, I will go and concentrate."
日馬富士　横綱で初の２桁勝利。「一生懸命やった結果。あと５日あるし、集中していきます」

Some thoughts on the "?"s. I had to look up 注文にはまる - saw it used in chess articles and other sports. Basically means your opponent set a trap, and then you tripped into it exactly how he wished you would. There is probably an appropriate English idiom but nothing specific came to mind.

注文にはまった翌日

the day after getting stuck [in a trap] just as [his opponent] wanted

the day after getting caught in a henka.

まあこんなもん

"Well, this is about how it usually goes." (being a shin-komisubi)

*Edit, new info:

Henka is also called a 注文 sometimes! 注文にはまる still seems like stock sports idiom, but in this case I think replacing the euphemism with the correct word makes more sense.

Thanks for digging deeper and finding these explanations. This makes sense.

I really couldn't make much of these two phrases. I usually look up on alc.co.jp to find related phrases, but it doesn't always find something, especially if it's sumo specific.

The term Chuumon-zumo is more common, a search for 注文相撲 gives plenty of results.
