Yes, he won it.
After a string of defeats by Robert E. Lee, nobody was expecting this Northern victory. But by chance, a Confederate officer dropped a set of orders in the field, and they were brought to McLellan's HQ.
It meant the game was in his hands. But unfortunately there was a Confederate spy in his camp, who alerted Lee about this development.
McLellan still won, but was not able to pursue and destroy Lee's army.
