sort fields in a column after grouping

I have stats values(A) by B, C and then I want to sort by values of A within each group. A is a numeric value. How can I accomplish that?

I tried stats values(A) as A by B, C | sort A but that's only sorting the groups, not the values within each group in the stats.

base search | stats count by A,B,C | fields - count| sort B,C,num(A) | stats list(A) by B,C

If you're not worried about the count and just want to list values, give this a try.

your base search | stats count by A,B,C | fields - count| sort B,C,num(A) | stats list(A) by B,C

Since duplicates are already removed by first stats, list and values will return same set of data.
