Nikolai Bonds, Barry's oldest son, tore two ligaments in his left ankle last week when he dunked during a pickup basketball game and came down on someone's foot -- and now the 17-year-old is hobbling around the clubhouse in a walking boot for the initial stage of what is expected to be a two-month recovery. That means he might not be in a Giants uniform working as a bat boy when his father breaks Hank Aaron's home run record, as the younger Bonds has been for many of his dad's other milestones in recent years. "He'll still be there," Barry Bonds said. "It's not serious. I don't think anything's that serious at 17. Who says he won't be down there. Who knows? We're not there yet."
