How to produce a table visualization that spans time?

The following SPL returns data for all returns for a day.

How can I just return the maximum return for the day?

Example:
July 1 data returns 12 apples, 10 oranges, and 5 cherries

I would only like to see 12 apples since its the highest count for that particular day.

July 2 returns 10 grapes, 7 kiwis, and 3 dates, only returns 10 grapes for that day

index=RazorApp sourcetype = TotalFruitsSold| | table CurrentDate, FruitsSold  

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

not sure how your data is structured exactly with FruitSold field, but lets assume its an integer, you will do something like this:
index=RazorApp sourcetype = TotalFruitsSold| | stats max(FruitsSold) as max_ammount by CurrentDate

show us a data sample and we can better assist

and if you need to know which fruit and not just the amount, you may need eventstats instead - get the max, then use it to find the winner.

... | eventstats max(FruitSold) as day_max by CurrentDate | where FruitSold=day_max | table CurrentDate, FruitName, FruitSold

and probably need to decide what you want to do when there's a tie.
