TORONTO (AP) — The Philadelphia Phillies insist they haven’t lost confidence as they stumble through their worst stretch of the season so farAledmys Diaz hit a go-ahead three-run double in the eighth inning and the Toronto Blue Jays rallied to beat Philadelphia 8-6 on Saturday, handing the slumping Phillies their sixth loss in seven games.The Phillies have lost 12 of 18 since a five-game winning streak that ended Aug. 5.“We’ve had stretches similar to this one,” Philadelphia manager Gabe Kapler said. “This one has been undoubtedly difficult but we remind our guys how tough we are and how resilient we are and that good teams have rough stretches. By no means does this mean we don’t have the ability to win the National League East.”Philadelphia led 6-5 to begin the inning but Seranthony Dominguez (1-5) loaded the bases by giving up a hit, a walk, and hitting a batter. Victor Arano came on and struck out Teoscar Hernandez for the second out before Diaz cleared the bases with a double over the head of center fielder Odubel Herrera.The Phillies, who have lost four of five to Toronto this season
