Bonds is back for another postseason run as Giants take on Braves

SAN FRANCISCO - As the San Francisco Giants prepare to meet the Atlanta Braves in a division playoff series, Barry Bonds realizes time is running out. <br> <br> At 38, Bonds has no more than a handful of chances left to carry the San Francisco Giants to the World Series. His life could change in the next three weeks or he could remain one of the greatest players never to reach baseball&#39;s biggest showcase. <br> <br> According to Bonds, one of the most remarkable offensive seasons in baseball history was merely a prologue to the most important part of the year. Bonds isn&#39;t staying up nights worrying about his legacy, however; he&#39;s spending time with his batboy son, Nikolai, and hoping this is the year he&#39;s been waiting for. <br> <br> The Giants, winners of the wild card with a 25-8 surge to close the regular season, headed to Atlanta to begin the division series against the Braves on Wednesday. It&#39;s a best-of-five series, of course, which means Bonds will get just a few chances to impact it.
