The answer is B. The close victory afforded President Lincoln the opportunity to announce  emancipation.

The battle at Antietam ended with 23,000 men killed, wounded, or listed as missing. It is the single bloodiest day in the history of the United States. President Abraham Lincoln would later announce the Emancipation Proclamation due to their victory.
