Nobody surrendered.

By chance, McClellan learned that Lee's divisions were widely separated, and he had a chance to destroy them, one by one. Also by chance, there was a Confederate spy in the Union camp, who alerted Lee, and the latter concentrated his forces at Antietam Creek.

The ensuing battle was won by the Union army, but Lee managed to get his men back to Virginia.
