Order by in a query clause

Hey guys, I am trying to retrieve a list of exercises and it's data + grid position (join) from my database. I also want this array of result to be ordered by it's grid position. Here is what I came up with (the following code works just fine however notice the javascript .sort rather than using the drizzle orderBy).

const getExercises = () =>{
    return (
      await ctx.db.query.exercises.findMany({
        with: {
          data: { orderBy: (data, { asc }) => [asc(data.doneAt)] },
          position: true,
        },
      })
    ).sort((a, b) => b.position.gridPosition - a.position.gridPosition);
      //^ how could I move this logic to an orderBy clause ?
}

const getExercises = () =>{
    return (
      await ctx.db.query.exercises.findMany({
        with: {
          data: { orderBy: (data, { asc }) => [asc(data.doneAt)] },
          position: true,
        },
      })
    ).sort((a, b) => b.position.gridPosition - a.position.gridPosition);
      //^ how could I move this logic to an orderBy clause ?
}

So how could I order my final result by it's grid position ? I have tried the following but without any luck:

const getExercises = () =>{
    return (
      await ctx.db.query.exercises.findMany({
        with: {
          data: { orderBy: (data, { asc }) => [asc(data.doneAt)] },
          position: true,
        },
        orderBy: () => sql`exercises.grid_position`,
      })
    );
}

const getExercises = () =>{
    return (
      await ctx.db.query.exercises.findMany({
        with: {
          data: { orderBy: (data, { asc }) => [asc(data.doneAt)] },
          position: true,
        },
        orderBy: () => sql`exercises.grid_position`,
      })
    );
}
