Default Tomato Plants Wilting

The sick and healthy plants are not clustered in any obvious way, but I
guess that does not rule out a drainage problem. Are there any other
possibilities? Should I try some sort of fertilization?
Thanks again,

Take a look at their positioning. Are they three wilting ones
together? In one corner, along one side, least amount of sun,
draingage pipes, a downward slope, nearest to anything else? This may
be the clue you need to understand what is happening. Maybe you have
bad drainage at that spot and they are rotting at the roots. If they
do die out on you I believe their roots will be brown or black when
you have root rot. At that point you'll at least understand why.

Here in NY we just broke the all-time record for rain in the month of
June. Nearly 10 inches when our average is under 4. And we may
actually get three consecutive days of relative sunshine which hasn't
happened since May? April? I can't even recall.
