Sorting output fields in a spatial join?

I'm spatially joining 2 features from a layer to another polygon later. How can I sort the joined attributes numerically/alphabetically?

ie.

                              Address                                                                  X_coordinate

Feature 1      1 Fake street                                                                        12345

Feature 2      1 Fake street, 2 Fake street                                             12345, 56789

Feature 3      3 Fake street, 1 Fake street, 2 Fake street                 34567, 12345, 56789

Note how Feature 3 has 3 addresses spatially joined to it, but the merged fields are in a strange order.

I think when a new join feature is found, it's attribute data is inserted randomly into the merged field order....

Or maybe added in a dictionary format.

One way to confirm would be to do this in ArcGIS PRO since it uses Python 3.6 and insertion order is not maintained in dictionaries (ie no random sorting)
