oranges turning black?

I have a navel orange tree, have only had it about a year. It is in the ground. A couple of the oranges have started turning black and I was hoping someone could help me diagnosis what is going on? They do seem to be the ones that hang close to the ground. I fertilize with MicroLife 6-2-4 and water deeply if it doesn't rain. In July we had heavy rains and now the temps are close to 100 with no rain. Sorry the pics are a little blurry. I think you can still see what's happening. So far the leaves don't seem to be affected.

All my fruit trees seem to be coming down with something. I have a fig that has some rust, a grapefruit which seems to have scale (would have posted pics but they were very blurry), and the meyer lemon isn't putting on new growth. Sigh....discouraged.
