Output of 2 commands into 1 file

How could you put the output of two commands into one file using a single command? For example put the output of a grep command and a sort command into one file together.

Here is another rough explanation of what I am trying to do;

output of
$ grep pattern file1
plus output of
$ sort file 2
merged together in a new file called file 3?
I want to do all this in a single command. Is it possible?

NAME
zgrep - search possibly compressed files for a regular expression SYNOPSIS
zgrep [ grep_options ] [ -e ] pattern filename... DESCRIPTION
Zgrep invokes grep on compressed or gzipped files. These grep options will cause zgrep to terminate with an error code: (-[drRzZ]|--di*|--exc*|--inc*|--rec*|--nu*). All other options specified are passed directly to grep. If no file is specified, then the standard input is decompressed if necessary and fed to grep. Otherwise the given files are uncompressed if necessary and fed to grep. If the GREP environment variable is set, zgrep uses it as the grep program to be invoked. EXIT CODE
2 - An option that is not supported was specified. AUTHOR
