Day1 vs Aran (Haru-Basho 2010 Mar)

Grand Sumo Tournament Haru-Basho (=spring tournament) has begun.

Haru-Basho is held in Osaka where is located in the middle of Japan.

Baruto challenges Ozeki promotion in this tournament.

Nihon Sumo Kyokai officially announced Baruto's ozeki promotion challenge tournament.

Baruto meets Aran today.

This is their first met.

As I reported before,Baruto has injury in his left thumb.

So taping was rolled around his left finger thumb today.

First day is very important.

Baruto looked full of concentration from beginning.

On Tachiai(=start) Aran showed tricky body change.

But Baruto did not upset.

Baruto rushed without left grabbing.

I think it was because his thumb injury.

Baruto got first win!!

Baruto has to plus wins day by day at least until 13 wins.

Go for Ozeki,Baruto.
