Commenting on the Alaskan governor’s trip to a Yankees game, the comedian cracked, "During the seventh inning, her daughter was knocked up by Alex Rodriguez.” Uh, gross? We get it—no one likes Sarah Palin—but ripping on her underage children?  That’s a low blow that left us all feeling a little queasy.
