Battaglia. He had more connections and not on a short lease like Leone and Sorriento. Syl is my number one pick. 1926 to 1970, he had a great run uninterrupted, after 1928 till Appalachian and even then he was not hit hard. Low key, his associations with the Falcone brothers, Mike Coppola, Tommy Lucchese, and Joe Magliocco brought some attention to him. It is thought that Syl and his brother Gus were two of the shooters in the Leg Diamonds killing.
You're talking about Sylvester Battaglia?
I gotta say that you definitely pulled a rare name there. He was a major "sleeper," thats for sure.
PS: But you know the rules Giacomo. Lol. I ain't gonna say yet. Lol. But kudos for that pick,
