It's hard to say whether to pull or not since you don't know what you are dealing with. Is there any color break on the tomatoes? You can try ripening them indoors.
There is one good cluster of five tomatoes. Not as big as they should be but one of them started ripening today.

It killed plants my first year with it. The next year, I started using Raybo's grow medium mix and never that that issue again.
The growing medium is good, normal MG potting mix that worked great last year and is working great for all my plants this year. I checked it, not soggy, looks great. The other plant in the same box is doing fine.
