Bats, gloves . . .
I worry about more important stuff . . .
Yes, I would have no problem with either request.

Outfielders are allowed to come in and get sunglasses usually because of a change in the sun's status as the inning progressed ... although this is very rare.
I would allow this because the "compelling" reason is obvious - like a cracked bat or a broken lace on a glove.
I would think there would have to be some sense of NEED offered - wouldn't you? Because, it
is delaying the game. And if no reasonable reason is offered, then the delay is, by definition, unreasonable.
