Since there can be several delimiters that need to be preserved, split isn't an option. The alternative easy way is to process each sentence with global replace, where a sentence ends up with punctuation marks followed by a whitespace, and punctuation mark is optional at the end of the string:
sentences.replace(
/.+?([.?!]+(\s+|$)|$)/g,
sentence => sentence ? sentence[0].toUpperCase() + sentence.slice(1) : ''
)
