Ronald Torreyes was 'attacked' by a plastic bag in the outfield, but don't worry, he controlled the situation

It was Katy Perry who once asked the famous and pondering question: "Do you ever feel like a plastic bag, drifting through the wind, wanting to start again?" The lyrics put her on the map. Well, she was famous way before that, but it had a lot of meaning behind it.
When a bag is swept by the elements, it loses control -- you can't stop it from doing what it wants to do -- not even if you're Ronald Torreyes.
During the Yankees' 7-2 win over the Rays on Wednesday, the Yankees infielder had some issues with a stray plastic bag:

As you can see, he did his best to fight off the blue beast with a ninja-like kick move, but eventually gave up -- and after a swift grab, into his pocket it went.
Despite concerns from Brad Miller, who was at the plate, everything seemed to get under control.
