"2>&1 |" is the sh equivalent. Here's a snippet from the from the zsh
manpage:
A pipeline is either a simple command, or a sequence of two or more
simple commands where each command is separated from the next by `|' or
`|&'. Where commands are separated by `|', the standard output of the
first command is connected to the standard input of the next. `|&' is
shorthand for `2>&1 |', which connects both the standard output and the
standard error of the command to the standard input of the next.
