Probably the Union forces. Neither side lost any ground, nor was either army pushed away from its positions. But, the southerners were doing all the attacking that day, and failed to carry their objectives, which were to drive Union troops off high ground at both ends of their line. Thanks to though to many brave soldiers especially those of the First Minnesota Regiment we stayed in the fight.
