Default Pruning tomato plants

Was wondering if anyone has pruned the bottom couple of stems from
tomato plants with any kind of success? It seems to me that they
never produce anything, are the first to get diseased, and probably
take energy from the growing of the fruit. It would also help get air
in and around the plant to promote drying of the leaves which would
also help prevent disease. I'd like to try it this year if I knew it
would be somewhat successful.
