Question about the movie "The Natural"

Okay, I just watched The Natura for about the 3000th time. I still can’t decide if Roy dies at the end, and the shower of sparks/idyllic tossing the ball around with his kid is heaven, or does he survive the supposedly ruptured stomache (which would seem more like internal bleeding to me, but what do I know?) and live happily ever after with the luminous Glenn Close?

In the movie, he lives. In the book, he also lives but strikes out and is publicly disgraced.
