Yahoo Losing Slash in URL

My directory style links have lost the backslash!?

Yahoo indexed some of my pages fine. I have set them all up with directory style links like:

domain.com/az/ and domain.com/az/phoenix/

However recently the search lost the backslash and the link of course is not found because that page does not exist (ie. domain.com/az). Their cache shows my page fine. My pages are php so I setup a redirect statement if the page is not found but I need it to go to these pages. Anybody else have this problem? Now my pages seem to be disappearing from Yahoo I assume since they can't find them anymore. I guess I could do an htaccess rewrite but I'd rather not since I might show duplicate pages there and elsewhere.
