The Confederates  charged the Union blockade with their new ironclad CSS Virginia. The Virginia ended up running right through the blockade since all of the shots fired from the Union ships couldn't damage the Virginia. The Union happened to commission their first ironclad warship, the USS Monitor around the same time. The CSS Virginia and the USS Monitor fought it out off the shore of Sewell's Point (modern day Norfolk). The battle ended up in a tie, but each side thought they had won.

They lost because they thought that sheer numbers were enough to overpower the Confederates who occupied the town.
