Nolan Schanuel looks to spark Angels against Royals

The Los Angeles Angels were impressed with first baseman Nolan Schanuel, drafting him out of Florida Atlantic University last year with the 11th overall pick and then promoting him to the major league team after just 22 games in the minors. Schanuel, who likely will be batting leadoff for the Angels on Friday night when they face the Kansas City Royals in the second contest of a four-game series in Anaheim, Calif., hasn't let the club down.
