将句子分成单独的字符串，其中句子以大写字母开头

Question

Basically, I want to break up the following string into two separate strings, such that:

Input: 'LIPCIUS, A. grounded out to 3b (1-2 FBF); AMMONS advanced to second. MOBERG struck out swinging (2-2 BSSFBS).'

Output: ['LIPCIUS, A. grounded out to 3b (1-2 FBF); AMMONS advanced to second.', 'MOBERG struck out swinging (2-2 BSSFBS).']

New sentences is my case will always start with a capital letter (ie the name of the player). Here is my attempt at a code to do this:

import re

string = 'LIPCIUS, A. grounded out to 3b (1-2 FBF); AMMONS advanced to second. MOBERG struck out swinging (2-2 BSSFBS).'
x = re.findall("[A-Z].*?[\.!?]", string, re.DOTALL)
print(x)

My code currently outputs the following, and the first string in the list is inaccurate:

['LIPCIUS, A.', 'FBF); AMMONS advanced to second.', 'MOBERG struck out swinging (2-2 BSSFBS).']
it should be ['LIPCIUS, A. grounded out to 3b (1-2 FBF); AMMONS advanced to second.','MOBERG struck out swinging (2-2 BSSFBS).']

Answer 1

Regex below should works for you, added optional lookahead assertion of Capital letter or end $ follow by . to avoid stopping at A. and B.

import re
string = 'LIPCIUS, A. grounded out to 3b (1-2 FBF); AMMONS advanced to second. MOBERG struck out swinging (2-2 BSSFBS).'
x = re.findall("[A-Z].*?[\.!?]\s?(?=[A-Z]|$)", string, re.DOTALL)
# ['LIPCIUS, A. grounded out to 3b (1-2 FBF); AMMONS advanced to second. ', 'MOBERG struck out swinging (2-2 BSSFBS).']

Answer 2

import re
s = 'LIPCIUS, A. grounded out to 3b (1-2 FBF); AMMONS advanced to second. MOBERG struck out swinging (2-2 BSSFBS).'
l = re.split(r'[.][ ](?=[A-Z]+\b)', s)
print l

It only does not include the dot after each wanted output item but I guess it won't bother you.
